Description:Excerpt from An Account of a Part of the Sufferings and Losses of Jolley Allen: A Native of London, With a Preface and Notes At a regular meeting of the Massachusetts Historical Society, an application was presented for leave to copy a manuscript written by Jolley Allen in London, Eng., during 1779 or 1780, giving an account of a part of his sufferings and losses in America. The sub-committee to whom this application was referred thought it best to print the manuscript; and it appeared in vol. xvi. of the Proceedings of the Society, February, 1878. Mr. George Ticknor gave the manuscript to the society. It was given to him by the Hon. George W. Erving, at one time minister of the United States at the court of Spain; it was found among his father's papers after his decease. George Erving and Sir William Pepperell were the executors of Mr. Jolley Allen; and he requested them, as soon as the times would permit, to bring his remains to Boston, New England, and bury him in the family tomb, under King's Chapel (Sabine's "History of the Loyalists"). I think his wish was not complied with, and that his body still lies under St. John's Church, Wapping, London, where he was buried.
