[Boston]  Nov. 6. This being lord's day, the mind of serious
people at public worship, were greatly disturbed with drums
beating and fifes playing, unheard of before in this land---
What an unhappy influence must this have upon the minds of
children and other, in eradicating the sentiments of
morality and religion, which a due regard to that day has a
natural tendency to cultivate and keep alive.
