Thursday last was observed as a day of publick Thanksgiving,
when the several churches and congregations united in their
praises to Almighty God,. . . 
  At the illuminations for the reduction of Quebec, in one
of the windows near the Court-House was represented, a
monument with this inscription, M.S. Invictissimi viri
Jacobi Wolfii.  xiii Septembris.  MDCCLIX.--And on the top
Victory resting on a spear, and holding out a wreath of
laurel in the right hand.  In another window was represented
the city of Quebec, with the English flag flying, and the
French flag lying on the ground, with the staff broke; and
over all, fame sounding her trumpet.
