202 Agitation of LOCH 



days in the morning, other days in the afternoon, till the 



of October, fince which time no fuch thing has been obferved. 



I HAVE not heard (although I have made particular enquiry) 

 that any motion of the earth was felt in this neighbourhood, 

 or that the agitation of the water was obferved any where but 

 about the village of Kenmore. 



I HOPE the above account will furnifh an anfwer to moft of 

 the queftions contained in your letter. If there be any other 

 circumftance about which you wilh to have farther information, 

 it will give me pleafure to be able to communicate it. I am, 



Dear Sir, 



Your moft obedient humble fervant, 



THOMAS FLEMING. 



K B. THE village of Kenmore is fituated nearly in the parallel of 56*, 35', and about 

 I weft of the meridian of Edinburgh. Loch Tay extends from thence fomewhat more 

 than 15 miles W. S. W. Its medium breadth is not much lefs than a mile, and its 

 depth muft be very confiderable, if one may judge from the 'height of the adjacent 

 tpountains.
