"In the memory of its oldest inhabitant, the little town of Boxford was never so gay and unanimous as on the occasion of her Majesty's Coronation. Yesterday every poor person in the parish, above 700, were regaled with old English fare: the hungry were fed and the sad were made to laugh, for, notwithstanding the inauspicious weather various rustic sports were kept up till dark. The illumination of the evening was very excellent, and there was a grand display of fireworks, which lasted until after midnight."
