As it is replete with consummate Impudence, the most abominable Lies, and stuffed with daring Expressions of Tyranny, as well as Rebellion against the established, constitutional Authority of the AMERICAN STATES, no one will hesitate in pronouncing it be the genuine Production of that perfidious, petty Tyrant, Thomas Gage.
