Sound. 



Bumbling sound heard 

 twice. It was, however, so 

 slight that it was unnoticed 

 by many. 



At 8h. 40 min., and 9 h. 15 

 min. a.m., sound was heard. 



The detonation of the ex- 

 plosion was very intense, con- 

 tinuing for nearly 5 minutes. 

 It was also heard for several 

 hours afterwards. People 

 regarded the rumbling as 

 a premonitory sign of the 

 earthquake. 



People inside the houses 

 did not notice the sound. 

 Peasants who were working 

 in the field heard it. It 

 continued for nearly 5 min- 

 utes. The screech of the 

 pheasant which is generally 

 heard during an earthepaake, 

 was also noticed. 



Low rumblings noticed. 



Ashes.
