[London] Extract of another letter from London.
I would very well like to be with you in Boston when you
have certain advice of the repeal of the Stamp-Act, and no
doubt you will be very merry, not without reason. . .
[account of celebration in London] in the evening a number
of houses were illuminated, one in particular had 108
candles, it being the first majority in the House of Commons
for the repeal of the Stamp-Act. Mr.---and--- went to Bow
Church and set men to ring Bow Bells, and after staying with
them about an hour and a half join'd the merchants. . .
