Bassetere, (St. Christophers) March 23. Extract of a letter
from Montserrat, dated March 21. "Our troubles here are past
expression, occasioned by a most horrid and deep laid plot
of the Negroes, for cutting off all the white inhabitants.
This rebellion, which was to have been executed in an
instant, all over the island, on the night of St. Patrick,
or the next, when the people were engaged in balls, was
happily discovered by a poor white woman. . . "
