But Mr. Burrow having passed some days, during the late recess of the Society, at a place called Starborough-castle, which lies nearly _between_ the two churches of Lingfield and Edenbridge (scarce four miles distant from each other), he has had an opportunity of being more particularly and circumstantially informed of the fact, as far as relates to those two parishes: and he is now assured, that it was certainly and undoubtedly felt and observed by _some_ persons in each of those two parishes; tho’ (as it happened in the dead of the night, when most people were fast asleep) it was not _generally_ perceived: nor was it much spoken of, even by those, who were sure they felt it. The persons, from whose own mouths he can authenticate the fact, are James Martin, Adam Killick, Mrs. Jewell, and Mr. Chapman: and he has no less doubt as to Mr. Orgles and Mrs. Pigott (who was waked and much frighted by it), tho’ he did not indeed personally converse with either of the two last. These two, and Mrs. Jewell, all inhabit quite close to Lingfield church-yard, on different sides of it: and Chapman lives within a quarter of a mile of it, to the south-west. James Martin lives within a bow-shot of Starborough-castle, at the eastern edge of the parish of Lingfield, where it joins to that of Edenbridge; and Adam Killick’s habitation is three miles north-east of Starborough, at the north-western point of the parish of Edenbridge. All these four, with whom Mr. Burrow personally conversed, agreed as to the _time_ of the concussion; _viz._ between one and two in the morning: and they all agreed as to the _shaking_ of their beds and windows; and all of them described the _continuance_ of the shock as not much more than instantaneous: but they did _not_ all hear the _noise_, which _some_ of them observed it to conclude with; particularly Adam Killick heard NO _noise_ at all; and yet, he says, he was broad awake when it first began: and it shook his house and bed, and made his windows rattle so much, that he was apprehensive of their being broken; and even caused one pane of glass (which was indeed loose before) actually to drop out. But James Martin, who was likewise fully awake (as was his wife too), _did hear_ the noise distinctly. He says, he felt his house and bed shake, heard his windows rattle, and some earthen ware clatter upon a chest of drawers; and also heard a noise, like the distant discharge of a cannon: whereupon he immediately said to his wife, “Lord! what is _that_?” but she happening, at that very instant, either to cough or sneeze (she cannot recollect which of the two), did not, tho’ quite awake, perceive any thing at all of the matter. However, she confirmed her husband’s asking her this question under an apparent surprize.
