PASS]-‘.D MAY SESSION, 184-3.
No. 14.---An act in addition to an act enti-
tled ‘an act enabling Communities to
enforce and defend their rights.’
Sec. 1. Be it e’/zaelecl b_7/ lite Senate and

sembly convcnecl, That all conveyances of
property that have been liert-toforc, or shall
be hereafter made to the trustees of the com-

veyances mentioned.
Sec. 2. That all conveyances of property
that have been heretofore or shall be hereaf-

Sec. 3. That all suits in law or equity

and any legal claim or demand against said,
community may be in like manner enforced
by making said trustees for the time being
gare, as tlfey came on the stand, greeted
Mr. XV. very cordially, and were introduced
to the gt’l']llefllCfl in attendance as officers of
the day, Committees, &c.
But the deepest manifestation of enthusi-
asm was reserved for the appearance of the
surviving SOLDIERS 01-‘ THE REVOLUTION
who arrived in the succeeding carriages,
and alighting in the centre of the square,
totte.-‘ed with feeble steps to their places on
the platform. They were one hundred and
eighty in numb .1‘, twelve Of whom had
shared in the perils and glories of the bloody
struggle on this very ground sixty eight
years ago; three of them had fought also at
Lexington, where the first blood was shed
in the Revolutionary contest, two tnonths
before the determined strife on Bunker Hill.
Phineas Johnson, now 97 years old, was in
both these conflicts, and was reputed the
oldest man present; but we are assured that

M. (if. from this Stutt‘,) now 99 years old,
and also a sbarer in the Bunker Hill strug-
gle, was present-we know that he reached
Boston the night before in good health and
spirits, on purpose to be there. Earnest,
profound, reiterated werethe bursts of cheer-
ing from the immense concourse as these
treasured relics of a glorious day toiled up
to their seats on the staging. Eighteen
years ago, when the corner stone of the
monument was laid by La Fayette, in the
presence of sixty thousand freemen, a far
larger and stronger band of them were pre-
sent, to rejoice over the commemoration of
their heroic struggle half a century before.
Eighteen, years hence, who can hope that
even one of them will he left to tell the
thrilling story of these three eras in their
country’s cvt.-ntful history .7
The Freemasons, who had done much
towards the. erection of the Montimetit,
(having given the ground, on which they
had previotisly erected a small monument to
Gen. Warren their Grand Master, who fell
in the battle,) were out in considerable num-
bers, and made an imposing appearance.-
They were greatly out-numbered, however,
by the Odd Fellows, who must have tons-
tered nearly one thousand. The Sons of
New England from New York, escorted by
our superb Light Guards, were warmly
cheered its they arrived in tl:e_center. The-j
