 Newmarket for prospects, air, pleasure and provisions ! " The Parish 

 Registers and Parochial Documents in the Archdeaconry of Winchester, by 

 W. A, Fearon & F. J. Williams, p. 59.

 at Runswick, where a loss was incurred of £1,200 owing to the fact that

 similar disaster appears to have befallen Starbolton, in the parish of Kettle- 

 well, near Skipton, to which place a Brief was granted in 1687 for 'loss by 

 earthquake.'" Trans. East Riding Ant. Soc, vii., 98.
