Earliest cite for Boxing Day

I have found a cite for Boxing Day in Google Books that dates to 1822. I understand that just finding something in Google Books does not qualify as a source for Wikipedia, because it is not reported in a secondary source. Is there anything I can do with this discovery? Perhaps submit it to the OED or something? --Rpresser 15:09, 28 December 2020 (UTC)

Earlier cite for 1768. --Rpresser 15:23, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
