Boston, May 12 Journal of Occurrences, continued.  May 15. 
Yesterday, but before divine service began, part of the town
had opportunity of hearing Nancy Dawson from a most elegant
band of music, the French horns certainly were inimitable,--
It is some time since we have heard such a Sunday morning's
regale, the drums and fifes being the common entertainment,
and 'tis uncertain to whose taste we owe this: some think it
the fancy of Madam G-----rn, while others think that justice
himself conceived it might be an agreeable relief to the
wardens under the burthen of their duty.
