No. II.
On the fourteenth page of the preceding pamphlet is an extract from the
_Birbice Advertiser_, giving an account of the purchase of _Northbroke_
by a number of emancipated laborers. The _Guiana Chronicle_ of Monday,
Dec. 9th, just received, contains additional particulars of that
purchase, which appears to have been made not by a dozen persons as
stated in the _Birbice_ paper, but by about _seventy_.
The following are extracts from an address presented by the purchasers
to the Governor of the Colony.
_To His Excellency_ HENRY LIGHT, _Esquire, Governor and
Commander-in-Chief in and over the Colony of British Guiana_.
