NECH-C.775.007
6-13 Jul 1775:32 (7/363)
Cambridge, July 13. . . Last Saturday morning, before day-
light, a party of our men marched towards the enemy's
advanced guard on Boston neck, drove them within their
lines, burnt their guard-house (formerly the dwelling-house
of Mr. Brown) with several contiguous buildings, took two
guns, a halberd, and a drum. . . . [another item, a list of
casualties at Charlestown and then:]
We have undoubted intelligence that General Gage's troops
are much dispirited; that they are very sickly, and are
heartily disposed to leave off dancing any more to the Tune
of Yankey Doodle.
