Medieval Boston institutions and their odd traditions
A fragmentary Boston letter from Aug 24 describes quaint medieval customs in the city. Lancers parade with red coats and poles bearing red flags to guard the governor at college commencements, while fire alarm bells ring for nightly, pointless reasons. Other quirks include church bell vigils, a chimney sweep scene in Brattle Street, and social observations on business life and urban bustle. The piece blends satire with vivid local color and street scenes.
