Page:A trip to the moon (IA triptomoon00mcde).pdf/102



I thought of making this Publick, I met with an Account of Travelling in Whirlwinds, not unlike my Passage into the MOON, which is here inserted, taken from Dickson's NEWS-LETTER, as follows:

Esterday a Whirlwind took up into the Air, near 100 Yards from the Ground, four Hay-Cocks in a Field near this Town, each weighing 200 Pound, and carried them to another Place half a Mile off.

N. B. Perhaps some may imagine my being in the MOON to be only a mere Dream; but why one should not be as likely as the other, I shall leave it to the Judgment of the Reader after he has read the Foregoing TRIP, &c.
