Portsmouth and Piscataqua reported the same tremor. New York experienced a fierce northwest gale at two o'clock with thunder rain and snow causing major port damage. Damage is estimated at 39001 scarce repair.

Alterations in St Margaret's Church Described by a Friend
A reader describes the 1758 alterations in St Margaret's Church and judges the painted window by Albert Durer, noting its flaws in drawing and composition. The letter debates sacred art versus use, praises or critiques architectural changes from Elizabethan to Stuart rebuilds, and ends with local notices on ships, politics, and public matters.
