Sobre este artículo
Boston: Printed by Ford and Damrell, 1834. Pamphlet. 44p. pamphlet, neatly disbound, covers foxed. Buzzell was the professed leader of a group of Protestants who attacked and burned the Catholic convent in what is now Somerville, MA, in one of the landmark events of anti-Catholic persecution in New England. Austin describes the devastation of the riot and describes the anti-Catholic expression of bigotry as un-American. Buzzell is recorded as having later said, "The testimony against me was point blank and sufficient to have convicted twenty men, but somehow I proved an alibi, and the jury brought in a victory of not guilty, after having been out for twenty-one hours.
