Earthquakes, naval news, and a man-sized tale of tiny captives
The page reports earthquakes felt in various towns with minor damage, naval movements, discharges of militia regiments, and a dramatic first-person account of a man abducted by tiny beings who bind and inspect him. It notes shipments and proclamations, a looming general council, and concludes with local notices and advertisements from 1727.
