Last Tuesday evening a very noble and splendid entertainment
was given to a great number of gentlemen and ladies of
superiour figure and distinction, by the honourable Robert
Auchmuty, Esq; Judge of the Admiralty, at his seat in
Roxbury; in joyful celebration of the birth of his Royal
Highness Prince George.  The whole front of his house was
spangled with lights, which glow'd like a firmament of
stars; in the centre of which was erected a spacious and
beautiful machine, with the three first letters of the Royal
Infant's name, inscrib'd in large capitals; and the evening
concluded with a fine ball.
