An account of the fire in Merimachi: in the year 1825

by Thos. M. Jordan. Poetry in 21 four-line stanzas printed in two columns divided by line of type ornaments. The broadside was probably printed in Maine. The backing of Brown University's broadside copy is an 1836 Maine newspaper. A seemingly autobiographical broadside poem by the same author mentions the Penobscot River and Bangor. Merimachi is an alternative spelling for Miramichi, the old name of Newcastle, New Brunswick, Canada. The entry for Newcastle in Lippincott's gazetteer reads: Newcastle, or Miramichi.
