Gentlemen Edlt s,
I ‘will do myfelf the pie cf are is
communicant to you tbs occurrence cf :i
phyfical phenomenon to me new, cud o
many truly alarm ng. I was arcu/ed
ft ora my repofe cn be me rung G f the
lb lb i ijf. at b df pad 4 o*clock fo a
violent crack gof my hot fie Wksn
I awoke, l djcoveted the hcvfe fc v.n
dUi-.it e like a vcffd , on a gently rolling
jea ; this momn continued for fever al
minutes , and was terminated by a tri
pidation of confides able violence,fo as
to move Prick Jjin.ncys fever of inches
from the k ufe* to it hub they were
attached: borne that we eco np f>d of
wood and dirt, th 0 vn quite down ,
My furpr if e was no lefs excited at three
other dfiinbt fhoCks fuaefiling the
fir ft ; cm at half pad fix. two others
in quick fuccejfic-n causing a few mi
nines after fetjen o'clock, I. M— /
am told that info me places vtrv ferious
confequettces have erfited to feme of the
half di/traided inhabitants by preci
pitating them;elves from under their
tc-ticring roofs into the fields , or open
air, imp*'iff and that was the be ft and
only afyluM from immediate deftruc
tion, by the -writ k nod crafh of matter.
I bis voir or was much augmented by
the intpr r JJi. y that thefe ccnvulfive
throws were awfully portentous cf an
*
i xmediate add final djf lution. Some
rre of the opinion that thy have felt
fiveral fhocki free-, but it is quite
pr bMe tha\ thf'e imbfejji ns might
only be a fab icy of fenfe , can fed by an
agitated mini —but as to the fir ft no
p fit ble doubt cm exiti. Iheau; of
phere was fir fever al days previous ,
much tbfcured by fmoak and was at
the time 0 rv dado wed by a dark cloud
•with a perjeft calm ; not a doubtful
breeze was offervsd to fan tbs gating
multitude- m noifie as the voice of
did ant thunder nor the ru/birg of
winds, but a perfect and dead \ jilence
p-rvadd ; while ajlonijhed nature
quaked with fear.
