Boston, February 26. Last Thursday morning, about ten
o'clock, some boys and children set up a large wooden head,
with a board, faced with papers, on which was painted the
figures of four of the importers . . . [narration of
incident in which Ebenezer Richardson fired on boys.] The
people on hearing the report of the gun, seeing the wounded,
and another as they thought killed, got into the new brick
meeting, and rang the bell, on which they soon had company
enough to beset the house front and rear. . .
