WHEREAS a small Calk (said to

Yesterday, in a Waggon, under my Care, in order to juftify

Pub ic that, on Sunday the zd Inftwt, a Negto Man be-
to, or employed by, Mr;. Sh la, a, of Boston,
eame to me and enquired whether 1 had a Waggon going to
Salem the next Day ? I answered, Yes ; he said hit Mistress
wanted to fond a small Calk, I told him the Waggon was
loaded and could not carry it, he replied the Calk was small
and light, and that Mrs. Shiafi would take it kind of
me to carry it, to oblige that Lady, I consented (not know
ing the Contents) to bring it, I have likewise the greareft
Reason to believe, that the Servants who drove the Car
nages, committed to my Care, were ignorant of the Con
tents of said Calk. And furthermore, I most solemnly de

way to mitigate tire evils intended for them by the diabolical
instruments of tyranny and oppietlion, (as they call the pre

following lelolvcr were unanimoufty agreed to, vi*.
Rrsot vtn, That abiidpe Ihail be built forthwith from
Barton's Point at New Boston over to Charles Town, and
another from Charles Town over to Penny-ferry, which
will nuke rhe land carriage from hence to Salem tj miles.
Rxsolvko, That 150 large Waggon* thall be built at
the public expence, with all imaginable dispatch, to convey
all the merchandize of Boston, to and from the port of

quite focure from insult and lobbery it is

any ftnps of war from ever entering this port again, and in
a violent iawlefo manner, dilturbmg the peace and quiet
and dellroying the trade and commeice of this town.
Rzsulvkd, That every person in this province, who
ihail be known to (apply the officer* of thecuftoms, or the
officers, failure,mariners or others Belonging to any veflel of
war, employed on this station for such an infamous pur-
Ipoir, either with provisions, fuel or- any other neceil try
whatever, ihail be deemed a traiterous enemy to America
and Ihail for ever be treated as such by the inhabitants of this
town and all friends to the lews and conftiiuiionai liberties
ot Great-Britain and her colonies.
1 am fully peiluaded the above refoliation* will be punc
