Rest, peaceful Shade ! innoxious, as tiiy walk, May Slander babble, and may Censure talk, Ne'er on ihj memory Envy cast a blot, But human frailties in thy worth foigot yGoogk THE BOSTON EVENING POST. In the Rehearsal of August 14, 1735, Thomas Fleets then its sole proprietor, gave notice that, for the future, he should print it every Monday evening, — instead of Monday morning, as it had previously been published : But the next Monday, instead of the Rehearsal, he issued a paper with the title ...of The Boston Evening Post, — in every thing except the title, a fac simile of The Rehearsal. It was numbered 202, — the last number of the Rehearsal having been 201 ; but, in OTder to break off the apparent continuity of connection between the two papers, and to destroy their identity, the second number of the Evening Post was marked Number 2, and all succeeding issues followed in their proper numerical order. The Evening Post soon became the most popular of the Boston newspapers. Fleet was a man of considera- ble talent, and often afforded specimens of his wit and humor in editorial paragraphs and advertisements.
