A strange and wonderful relation of a clap of thunder, which lately set fire to the dwelling-house of one Widow Rosingrean, living in the town of Ewloe, in the parish of Howerden in the county of Flint, and furiously burnt down the said house almost to the ground, notwithstanding the early assistance of the whole town, and a neighbouring potter and his family, who has above 20 men daily working at his own trade. Also another relation of a sow of one John Bartington's [sic] of Broad-Lane in the same town and county, which lately brought forth seven pigs, six of them well form'd, and alive, but the seventh of a monstrous shape, being both male and female, its face like to that of a child's, having such a nose, a mouth and two teeth not unlike those of infants, only it had but one eye, and was placed in the midst of its forehead. These two wonders are a present the admiration of the whole county. With permission.
