AN ANSWER TO A PAMPHLET, ENTITLED “CONSIDERATIONS ON THE PUBLIC EXPEDIENCY OF A BRIDGE FROM ONE PART OF BOSTON TO THE OTHER.”

Boston: E. Lincoln, 1806. 31, 8 pp. Disbound. Uniform light tanning, old unobtrusive institutional stamp and withdrawal. About Very Good. A peculiarly rancorous exchange on the question whether a bridge should be built from South Street to South Boston. The proponents of this plan, says the author, are guilty of “a new and bold attempt to deceive the public.” The bridge will serve no public benefit and its only purpose is to enhance the wealth of its developers. Rink 2625 [8]. AI 9853 [2]. Sabin 6596. Item #2409
