The New Hampshire Gazette And General Advertiser

December 6.

By a gentleman arrived from Birmingham yesterday, we have the following particulars: In consequence of an advertisement in the Birmingham papers, and hand-bills circulated for some days past, vast numbers assembled on Monday evening at the Union-tavern, & at the sign of the Church in Church-street, to form themselves into societies, by the name of Loyal True Blues. The streets were very turbulent during the whole night, and the dreadful huzza, so alarming in the late troubles, again assailed the ears of the peaceable inhabitants. About eleven at night a large party appeared before the house of Mr. Hutton, in High-Street, and violently knocked at the door and window-shutters, they obliged the family to come to the windows and audibly exclaim, "Church and King!" About three in the morning, a very large party appeared before the house of Mr. Humphries, at Spark-Brook, from which, after breaking a few panes of glass, and receiving from Mr. Humphries, five or six guineas, they departed. Every thing was tranquil when the above gentleman left Birmingham.
