  morning, but it's not clear what caused it.One person in Fitzwilliam

  11:30 a.m.Another emailer from Merrimack said they heard a huge bang
  and their house shook.A third person in Goffstown said the shaking
  caused a picture on the wall to fall.Viewers in from more than 40 towns
  including Rindge, New Boston, Hillsboro, Greenfield, Goffstown,
  Peterborough, Chichester, Nashua and even Lebanon, Maine and
  Winchendon, Massachusetts also made similar reports."First thing was

  on our second floor," Weare resident Richard Bossart said. "We called
  up to our son on the second floor who replied, 'It wasn't me!'" Several
  police departments in southwest New Hampshire were dispatched to
  investigate reports of a loud boom, but nothing has been found.Neither

  earthquakes in New Hampshire on Sunday."We see nothing on our seismic
