A letter to a friend : Giving a concise, but just, representation of the hardships and sufferings the town of Boston is exposed to, and must undergo in consequence of the late act of the British-Parliament; which, by shutting up it's [sic] port, has put a fatal bar in the way of that commercial business on which it depended for it's [sic] support. Shewing, at the same time, wherein this edict, however unintended, is powerfully adapted to promote the interest of all the American colonies, and even of Boston itself in the end / By T. W. a Bostonian.
