Last Saturday being the anniversary of her Majesty's birth
day, the same was celebrated in this city with the utmost
demonstration of loyalty and affection. At twelve o'clock
the magistrates and officers, with a great number of other
gentlemen waited upon his excellency our Governour to drink
the publick healths, when at the same time the guns upon the
ramparts were discharged. In the evening there was a ball
at the Fort, and a very rich and splendid entertainment for
a vast concourse of the best gentlemen and ladies of the
place, who were there assembled upon that occasion and
concluded the night with universal mirth and satisfaction;
his Excellency and his Lady having to the utmost of their
power contributed thereto.
