never like what he then heard, which Teem'd like 
opening a Cafement- Window and fhutting it again 
very fuddenly and violently. A Cat that lay upon 
his Bed darted up in much Surprize. 
Several People in the Neighbourhood went out 
into the Streets, and others got upon the Leads of 
their Houfes, to fee if any Damage was done. 
Some Milk- women felt it very ftrongly as they were 
milking their Cows near Maribone. It was violent 
in Bond-jireet , and all that Quarter of the Town j 
and I find, by People living in very different and 
diftant Parts of London and IVeJlminJler , that it 
was felt univerfally through the Whole, and was 
not only longer in Continuance, but that its Mo- 
tion was more violent and (hocking than the Earth- 
quake, which happen'd on Feb. S. (this Day was 
four Weeks) a hafty Account of which I had the 
Honour to lay before you. 
A Waterman that was lying in his Boar, then at 
Anchor near King ft on , told a Friend of mine, that 
he was frighted with fomething like a violent 
Blow (hiking againft the Bottom of the Boat ; that 
the Water was much agitated, and that the Barges 
and other Veffels upon the River were tolled about 
as in a Temped. 
Thefe, Sir, are all the Particulars yet come to my 
Knowlegej which, tho' put together in a Hurry, 
may, I hope, prove acceptable. 1 (hall only 
add, that I have the Honour to be, 
SIR , 
catherine-fireet , four mo ft obedient humble Servant ,
