GEORGE II, King of England , (1683-1760)]. A newspaper: The Boston Gazette and Country Journal , Monday, 5 January 1761. 1 page, folio (14 x 9¼ in.) . BOSTON LEARNS OF THE KING'S DEATH. The Gazette 's front page ("Containing the freshest Advices, Foreign and Domestic"), is given over almost entirely to reports from London on the death and funeral of King George II. It quotes the sermon of the Dean of Westminster and describes the eleborate funeral services cortege and attendees. The Sovereign's death opened the throne to young George III, who in just over a decade Bostonians would vilify as a hated tyrant.
