nen, pierced thro*, of which none wasany wayfmutted, 
but the uppermoft Ply. of a Tablecloath that lay above 
ail the reft. The Gentlewoman told me, there was a 
yellow Singe or Stain perceivable on fome part of the 
other Linnen fo damage the next day 5 and that the 
whole Linnen fmelt ftrong of Sulphur ^ but neither this 
yellow Stain or Smell was perceivable when I was there : 
That the Glafs of two Windows in the Bed-Chamber 
above, and two Windows in the Kitchin beneath, was 
fo Blattered, that there was fcarceone whole Pane left in 
any of them 5 That the Pewter, Brafs, and Iron Furni- 
ture in the Kitchin were thrown down, and fcatter’d a- 
bout the Kitchin, particularly a large Girdle about 20 
Pounds weight, that hung upon an Iron Hook near the 
Ceiling, was found lying on the Floor 5 That a Cat was 
found Dead the next Morning in the Kitchin, with its 
Legs extended as in a going pofture, in the middle of the 
Floor, with no other Sign of being hurt, than that the 
Furr was finged a little about the fetting on of the 
Tail. 
The Gentlewoman told me too, That about fome few 
Days before this Accident happened to her, (he removed 
a Table Prefs-Bed from the Place where the Hair Trunk 
ftood, wherein two little Girls (her Daughters) ufed to 
lie 5 which (he looked upon as a particular Piece of Pro- 
vidence. 
I muft further remark, That the Wall both above and 
below a little Window in the fame Gabel-eud was fo 
(batter’d at the fame time, that the Light could be feen 
thro’ the Crevices in the Wall ^ and that upon a large 
Stone on the outfide of the Wall beneath this Window, 
was to be feen a mark, as if made by the Broke of a 
Smith’s Sledge or large Iron Crow, with which a Splinter 
or piece of the Stone was broken oif of fome Pounds 
F 2 weight.
