Celebration of the Prince of Wales birthday in Boston
From the supplement of the Boston Gazette August 19 the anniversary was marked with joyous demonstrations. Cannons fired from forts and ships and a royal procession passed through the road town. News of Pitt’s appointment as Principal Secretary of State heightened the delight. Public cheers rose in King Street as people, of all statuses, unified in loyalty. Four Indians from Fort Halifax visited to acknowledge English subjection amid notes on colonial union and congress disputes.
