Boston, October 24.  Jounal of Occurences continued. . .
[Oct.25] It is said the officers intended a grand assembly
this evening, but the ladies of the town could not be
persuaded into the propriety of indulging themselves in
musick and dancing with those gentlemen who have been sent
hither in order to dragoon us into measures, which appear
calculated to enslave and ruin us.
For this, when beauty's blooming charms are past,
Your praise, fair nymphs, to lates times shall last.
