On Monday last the Rev. doctor Smith delivered an animated
and pathetick oration, in the German Calvinist church, in
honour of the late general Montgomery, and the brave
officers who fell with him before Quebeck, to a very crowded
assembly, consisting of the principal ladies of the city,
the Congress, General Assembly, Committees of Safety and
Inspection, the professors and students of the college, and
the four battalions of city militia.  Several pieces of
solemn musick were performed before and after the oration,
which added much to its entertainment.
