This seems to have been felt throughout St. 

 Clair county. A rumbling noise and sensible 

 vibration of buildings were experienced. 



The water near the centre of Winnepisseoge 

 lake appeared to sink suddenly and was fol- 

 lowed by large waves, there being no breeze 

 stirring at the time 



Eruption of the volcano; stones and 

 thrown as far as Halmaheira. The Batavia 

 Handelsblail, Sept. 25, states that on the af 

 ternoon of Aug. 7 a violent earthquake was 

 felt. Exact direction unknown. The Ter- 

 nate mountain had from 9 a.m. caused a 

 dull, rumbling sound to be heard, varied at 

 intervals by loud reports, and began in the 

 course of the day to cast out streams of lava. 

 A southerly wind changed the direction of 

 the lava streams flowing landwards, and 

 led the tire in seven currents to the ravines. 

 The eruption of Are and stones lasted about 

 twelve days, after which it became less. 

 This outburst was the most violent known 

 at Ternate within the memory of man. The 

 whole island shook from the under-ground 

 motion. On Aug. 28 the volcano was again 

 at rest, only a small cloud was seen coming 

 out of the crater.
