FOOTNOTES:

[Footnote 1: The circumstances connected with the introduction of the
British troops into Boston will be found related in the "Atlantic
Monthly" for June, 1862; and the number for the following August
contains a view of the relation of the question of removal to the
arbitrary policy contemplated for the Colonies.]

[Footnote 2: Boston, printed in the "Gazette" of February 12, 1770. A
letter printed in the "Boston Evening Post," October 9, 1789, from
London, received by the last ship, after eulogizing "the noble stand of
the colonists," says, "I am charmed with the prudent conduct of the
Bostonians in particular, and that you have been able lo preserve so
much tranquillity among you, while the spirits of the people must have
been so soured and agitated by oppression. You have certainly very wise
and prudent men concerned in the conduct of your affairs." A Tory view
of Boston in these times, (by "Sagittarius,") is as follows:--"The
Town-Meeting at Boston is the hot-bed of sedition. It is there that all
their dangerous insurrections are engendered; it is there that the flame
of discord and rebellion was first lighted up and disseminated over the
Provinces; it is therefore greatly to be wished that Parliament may
rescue the loyal inhabitants of that town and Province from the
merciless hand of an ignorant mob, led on and inflamed by
self-interested and profligate men."]
