Boston, January 22. We hear from Plymouth, that the 22d day
of December last was there observed, by a number of
gentlemen, by the name of the Old Colony Club, in
commemoration of the landing of their ancestors in that
place: On the morning of said day, a cannon was discharged,
and an elegant silk flag hoisted at their Hall, with the
following inscription, "Old Colony, 1620." At eleven of the
clock, a.m. the members of the club met at the hall. . . [15
more lines] after this at the private grammar school
opposite the hall, a number of young gentlemen to express
their joy upon the occasion, and their respect for the
memory of their ancestors, in the most agreeable manner
join'd in singing a song very suitable for the day. . . [37
more lines including toasts made]
