You will see. back of the pulpit platform and below the quaint old soundingooara' the very window through which Gen. eraI Joseph Warren came to dellVer his famous oration on the anniversary of the Boston massacre because the crowd in and around the church was so great that he could not enter by the door.
 In this church were held some Of the great meetings leading up to the fam- nus Boston ''tea party" Indeed, It was from this "sanctuary of freedom" as if has been called, that the band Of men disguised as Indians started for the wharf to board the ships and throw overheard the taxed tea that had created such turmoil in Boston If you should follow the exact route taken by that band of ''Mahawks" on that eventful December day in the wear 1773 you would finally reach a modern building on the site of Griffin wharf. at which lay moored on Dec cember 16, 1773, the three British ships with cargoes of tea. This house bears q. tablet corrlmemorating the famous .sBoston tea party which threw the cargoes into the sea.
