Citation | NYJ-N.774.064 9 Jun 1774:32 (1640) Extract of a letter from Philadelphia, dated June 2d, 1774. Yesterday we had a pause in the business of this city,-- and a solemn pause it was. If we except the Friends, I believe nine tenths of the citizens shut up their houses; the bells were rang muffled all the day, and the ships in the port had their colours half hoisted. |
