Elisha Brown of Boston, who in Oct. 1769 during 17 days inspired with a generous zeal for the laws bravely and successfully opposed a whole British Regiment in their violent attempt to force him from his legal habitation. Happy citizen when called singly to be a barrier to the liberties of a continent.
