The occurrence of this earthquake, although it may have been local, is possibly connected with three 

 heavy shocks which on the night of May 19-20 shook Amboina in the Moluccas. 



May 24. The clock ceased to drive the paper several times, with the result that the times of five 

 thickenings cannot be obtained. 



32. May 26. 



The " Discovery " record refers to an earthquake with an origin about 15° distant from that station. 

 The time of origin would, therefore, be at about 10.50. At 11.40 we should expect Po to have reached 

 Europe, which is the time at which records were obtained there. 



Origin S. or S.W. of New Zealand. 



34. Mai/ 31. 



M - C for the first two entries suggest an origin 25° distant from the " Discovery " and 22° distant from 

 Christchurch, or 140° E. Long, and 55° S. Lat. The time of origin would be approximately 7h. 4m. The 

 anticipated times of arrival of P3 at the last three stations, respectively 115°, 125°, and 145°, would be 

 8.14, 8.19, and 8.29. 



June 2, 4.30 to 23.52 the light was out. On June 8 for a portion of the day the clock stopped, 

 while th& record for June 9 has been lost.
