We are informed, that at the desire of the inhabitants of
this town, the Meeting-house in Hollis street, at the south
part of the town, the Old Brick in the centre, and the New
North Meeting house, are to be opened this day, at ten
o'clock forenoon, for the purpose of returning public thanks
to Almighty God, for the appearance of Providence in behalf
of the United States of America, by the capture of Lord

belonging to the Continental Army, who are inhabitants of
this town, and engaged in the Army for three years or during
the war, . . .
