[Boston. Journal of Occurrences, continued] June 2. The
next day, when the 14th regiment were mustered in King-
Street at roll-call, a fray happened between two little boys
about seven years old, which as usual, gathered a crowd of
people; several persons going through the street were
oblig`d, in order to avoid the crowd, to pass near the right
wing of the regiment; for which daring intrusion, four
persons were successively struck down by a drummer. . . [25
