We have here a small disturbance which seems to have extended round the northern hemisphere N. 

 of latitude 30, and to have also been recorded at Christchurch and possibly by the " Discovery " in the 

 southern hemisphere. 



107. August 11. 



This earthquake originated in the eastern part of the Mediterranean and was felt in Southern Italy, 

 Cairo and Constantinople. At about 4.25 it was severe in the Island of Cerigo which was near the 

 epicentre. In Athens there were heavy shocks at 4 31 '7 and 4 33 '0. The time of origin deduced from 

 the first records in Athens would be 4h. 30m. + 30s. 



The time of origin deduced from observations made at comparatively near stations is shown by the 

 following table : 



The following velocity table is constructed on the assumption that the shock originated near Cerigo at 

 4.30. (See Time Curve No. 107, Plate 1, and Map, Plate 2.)
