I75 °’ JL viands my Acknowledgments to be 
made in a lx i ter Manner than the continual Avo- 
cations in which I have been of late engaged will 
enable me to do but I am perfuaded the Deficiency 
of my Account of the Earthquake, which was i'ome 
time ago felt in thefe Parts, will be abundantly fup- 
plicd by that, which my worthy Friend the Rev. Dr. 
Doddridge tells me by Letter this Morning he has 
tranfmitted to you by the Hands of Mr. Baker. 
As to the Extent of this Phenomenon, with rc- 
fpcdl to the South and South-Weft (of which alone 
1 am at prefent capable of giving you any Informa- 
tion) it feems not to have reach’d much further than 
To\x,cefier : For it was not perceiv’d at Stony -Strat- 
ford, S Miles South of that Place on the London 
Road j nor at Newport-pagnel in Buckingham]}) ire, 
lomewhat more to the Eaft of that Town. 
I fpent the Week before laft at Mr. B/encozv’s, 
at Mar ft on St. Laurence in the South- Weft Angle 
of our County; and found that it had not been per- 
ceiv’d there, nor in the other Towns on the Bor- 
ders of Oxfordjhire. 
We went from thence to Mr. H Ibeche s oiFarn- 
borough, 8 Miles Weft ward of Mar (ton, on the 
Coniines of IParwickjhire, where we could hear 
nothing
