[Boston. Journal of Occurrences, continued. March 31.]. .
. We are informed from North-Kingston, that last Friday,
eleven neighbouring young ladies met together at the house
of John Dongon, Esq; in this town, upon a spinning match;
where they began to spin about sun-rise, and spun about
forty six fifteen knotted skeins of good linen yarn, and
left off about five in the afternoon of said day;
when about as many young gentlemen, as there were ladies,
came to said house, and opened a fine ball as a recompence
to the ladies, for their industry.
