Wilmington, in North-Carolina, Nov. 20. On Saturday the
19th of last month, about seven of the clock in the evening,
near five hundred people assembled together in this town,
and exhibited the effigy of a certain honourable gentleman .
. .
On Thursday, the 31st of the same month, in the evening, a
great number of people again assembled, and produced an
effigy of liberty, which they put into a coffin, and marched
in solemn procession to the church-yard, a drum in mourning
beating before them, and the town bells, muffled, ringing a
doleful knell at the same time . . .
