The front page features a series of Questions and Answers from New York "<i>being conceived in some measure calculated to advance the cause of freedom in the present critical situation of affairs.</i>" It goes on to note that "<i>A Congress of Deputies from the several Colonies is thought to be absolutely necessary to devise means of restoring harmony between Great Britain and the Colonies and prevent matters from com</i>ing <i>to extremities</i>" p1/c1-2.</p><p>"<i>A Friend to Mankind</i>" wrote to the publishers "<i>When I first read the barbarous Act for shutting up the port of Boston; an act made with the pious design to starve the poor; make the industrious idle; the happy miserable; and as an entering wedge to the horrid purpose of enslaving America although I was transported beyond measure I could not help reflecting that bitter as it was for the present it would absolutely be of happy tendency to America in the result.</i>" p2/c1.</p><p>This issue prints a May 25 address from 33 Marblehead loyalists congratulating Massachusetts Gov.

Meanwhile the five buildings of the college's campus in Cambridge housed 1600 American soldiers. After the British surrendered Boston in March 1776 and the American troops moved south to defend New York the college was permitted to reoccupy its buildings in June. Of 190 freshmen entering between 1775 and 1778 only 30 left prior to graduation.</p><p>An advertisement is included for a just-published pamphlet <i>Observations on the Act of Parliament commonly called the Boston Port Bill with Thoughts on Civil Society and Standing Armies</i>p2/c1.
