Watertown, March 4 1776
Yesterday se'nnight the Yankey Hero sent into Newbury Port, another Prize, a fine Brig, of about 200 Tons burthen 1 laden with Coal Cheese; &c. bound from White Haven, for the use of the Ministerial Butchers, under the command of General [William] Howe governor of Boston. This is the fifth prize out of eight which sail'd from the above Port, and we are in hopes of giving a good account of the three remaining.
