After reaching Wellington the shock had about 35 to travel to reach Perth, and 31 to reach the 

 " Discovery," which indicates an origin 152 E. Long, and 48 S. Lat., or on the continuation of the New 

 Zealand axis. The time at the origin deduced from the value M - C at Wellington would be 6h. 24m. 

 The time taken for large waves to reach Shide, 162 distant, would be Ih. 30m. The actual arrival and 

 the anticipated time for the same are in accordance, and we have another marked instance of antipodean 

 reappearance. 



June 1 to 5, clock stopped.

From the times given for M at the first four stations we should expect to find an origin at the centre of 

 a circle which passed through Perth and touched a circle of 15 to 18 radius which passed through 

 Wellington, Christchurch, and the " Discovery." This indicates a locality 120 E. Long, and 42 S. Lat. 

 The probability, however, is that the same is to be found 10 farther eastwards on the line of the New 

 Zealand axis. That the time of arrival for M at Bidston is 80 minutes later than Perth accords with 

 this supposition. The area shaken closely resembles that for No. 88.

Antipodean disturbances which are nearly simultaneous.
