Boston, September 18.  It is with pleasure we inform the
publick, that a few days since was ship'd for Newport a very
curious spinnet, being the first ever made in America, the
performance of the ingenious Mr. John Harris, of Boston,
(son to the late Mr. Joseph Harris, of London, Harpsichord
and Spinnet Maker, deceas'd) and in every respect does
honour to that artist, who now carries on said business at
his house a few doors northward of Dr. Clark's, North-End,
Boston.
