19 Dec 1774:24 (4/165)
Boston, Dec. 8. We hear from Cohasset (the only free port
in the county of Suffolk) that on the 17th instant, the
militia company in that place, appeared in the field, lodged
their arms, and marched to the meeting-house. Their
officers then voluntarily resigned their commissions, a
moderator and clerk were chosen; . . .
They then sang the former part of the 44th Psalm, and
proceeded to the choice of officers, when the three worthy
gentlemen, who had lately borne commissions, were
unanimously chosen to be their leaders. . .
