[New-York]  On Tuesday last our annual commencement was held
at Trinity Church, in this city. . . . 
  The procession was from the college hall to the church,
where the company, upon their entrance, were entertained
with a grand piece of musick, performed by Mr. Rice, upon
the new organ. . . . [2 paragraphs]
  To vary the scene, and to make the exercises of the day as
agreeable as possible to the audience, the company were
highly entertained with a solo anthem, accompanied by the
organ. . . . [1 paragraph]
  This being ended, the audience were entertained with
another voluntary, which did great honour to the performer,
and met with deserved applause. . . .
