Abstract
IN connection with Prof. O'Reilly's letters in NATURE of October 14 and 28 (pp. 570, 618), and your notice of October 21 (p. 599), I supply a few data, which at first I thought of too little interest for your columns. At 6.12 p.m. local time (17h. 41m. universal time), on October 16, two shocks occurred with a short interval, the direction being approximately that of the meridian. The intensity was such as might be produced by very heavy carts passing.
