Boston. . . Sometime since, the following lines were found
stuck on the outside of the door of the Council Chamber.
Our fathers pass'd the wide Atlantick Sea,
And bless'd themselves when in the desert free:
And shall their sons thro' treachery and fear,
Give up that freedom which has cost so dear?
. . . [4 more lines]
To which a gentleman in New-York has wrote the following
answer.
Their fathers crost the wide Atlantic Sea,
To be in desarts from their deserts free;
And shall their sons with glaring insolence
Support a cause so void of common sense?
. . . [4 more lines]
