New England Courant, July 3-10, 1725

Boston July 10

"We hear from Providence, that on Tuesday Night the 22d past (June 22), some evil minded Persons carry'd into the Presbyterian Meeting House there, a stinking Sturgeon of about 8 Foot in Length, and laid it on the Pulpit Floor, where it lay undiscovered till the Sunday following, when it was so much corrupted and putrified, that it was swarm'd with Vermine, and caused such a nausious Stench, that the People could not assemble in the Meeting House, but were forc'd to perform their Exercise in the Orchard"
