Extract of a letter from Berkley (in this province) dated
the 24th ult.
We had a very threatening alarm on the 10th of this month,
about ten o'clock in the forenoon, which arose from the
north-west, and proceeded to the south-east. The noise
resembled the regular discharge of three small cannon; after
which, a sound was heard, like the beating of a number of
drums, which continued for the space of 6 minutes, as near
as I can judge. I am informed, the same was heard through
great part of this country.
