The siege of Carthagena took place in 1741. This broadside was printed before the defeat of the British forces was known. Cf. Winslow, O.E. American broadside verse, 1930, p. 116. Thomas Fleet printed at the Sign of the Heart and Crown at this date.

Text in two columns; relief cut of the siege, at head.
