| Content Summary: |
A few of Irving's Boston friends pay tribute to the pleasure his visits bring and to the faultless performances of his Company. In bidding farewell they express equal admiration for his personal and professional qualities and wish all a fortunate voyage. The 17th is the anniversary of the British evacuation of Boston in 1776 but they regard Irving's departure very differently. |
