The best account I can give of the Storm in these Parts is as follows: Dr. _Towgood_ had his Court Gate, with a piece of Wall blown to the other side of the Road, and stands upright against the Hedge, which was 12 Foot over, and it was as big as two Horses could draw: A sheet of Lead which lay flat was carried from Sir _William Drake_'s quite over a Wall into the Minister's Court, near three-score Yards: There was a Tree which stood in Mr. _John Whitty_'s Ground which broke in the middle, and the top of it blew over the Hedge, and over a Wall, and over a top of a House, and did not hurt the House: There was a Mow of Corn that was blown off the Posts, and sate upright without hurt, belonging to _William Oliver_, at an Estate of _Edward Seymour_'s, called _Chappel Craft_: A Maiden Oke which stood in the _Quille_ more than a Man could fathom, was broke in the middle: Several hundred of Apple-Trees, and other Trees blown down: Most Houses damnify'd in the Tiles and Thatch, but no Houses blown down, and no Person hurt nor killed; neither did the Church nor Tower, nor the Trees in the Church-yard received much Damage: Our loss in the Apple-Trees is the greatest; because we shall want Liquor to make our Hearts merry; the Farmer's sate them up again, but the Wind has blown them down since the Storm. _From_ Hartley _in the County of_ Southampton_, an honest Countryman brought the following Account by way of Certificate, from the Minister of the Parish._ _SIR_, I the Minister of the abovesaid Parish, in the County of _Southampton_, do hereby Certifie of the several Damages done by the late great Wind in our own, and the Parish adjacent; several dwelling Houses strip'd, and several Barns overturn'd, several Sign Posts blown down, and many Trees, both Timber and Fruit; and particularly my own Dwelling House very much mortify'd, a Chimney fell down, and endanger'd both my own, and Families Lives. I am, _Sir, your humble Servant_, Nathan Kinsey. _From_ Okingham _in_ Berkshire, _and from_ Bagshot _in_ Surrey, _as follows_. _SIR_, Great damage to the Houses, some Barns down, the Market-house very much shattred, the Clock therein spoiled, several hundreds of Trees torn up by the Roots, most of them Elms, nothing more remarkable than what was usual in other places. It is computed, that the damage amounts to 1000 _l._ And most of the Signs in the Town blown down, and some of the Leads on the Church torn up: Yet by the goodness of God, not one Person killed nor hurt. _Bagshot_ in _Surry_. The Chimneys of the Mannor House, some of them blown down, and 400 Pannel of Pales, with some of the Garden Walls blown down, and in and about the Town several great Elms torn up by the Roots, most of the Houses shatter'd, and the tops of Chimneys blown down.
