To the customers of the Newport Mercury.

Other titles: Newport Mercury.
Notes: Dated [1769?] and ascribed to the press of Solomon Southwick by Alden based on a contemporary ms. annotation on the Newport Historical Society copy. However, textual references suggest that the verses were printed to commemorate the repeal of the Stamp Act which occurred on March 18, 1766. Samuel Hall, older brother of the author, printed the Newport Mercury from April 1763 to March 1768, and it is probable that the verses were printed during those years.
