Postscript to the Pennsylvania Gazette announcing the Boston Tea Party

Several news reports are contained here concerning the forced dumping of tea from several ships between New York and Boston, with Charleston expected to follow a similar procedure. The news items run from 17 December to 22 December 1773. From the Boston report, "...a number of people huzza'd in the street, and in a very little time, every ounce of the tea on board...was immersed in the bay, without the least injury to private property."
