 129. October 30. 



The quantities M - C for the " Discovery " and Perth records, and the difference Ixjtween M for each of 

 these two stations and that for Christchurch, each point to an origin in the southern extension of the 

 New Zealand axis, or 150 E. Long, and 50 S. Lat. The time of origin would bo about 14h. 57m. Large 

 waves would be expected to reach England, 162 distant, at 16.27, from which it may be inferred that the 

 entries for Shide and Bidston refer to this phase of motion. 



It may be noted that there are no records from stations in Germany and Bussia. We therefore have 

 here another illustration of antipodean convergence. 



130. November 1. 



The entries for Christchurch suggest an origin at a distance of 15 to the S.W. of New Zealand. With 

 a time of origin at 17.57, the anticipated arrival of PI at Strassburg, 155 distant, would be 18h. 17m. 



131. November 10. 



The values M - C for the first two stations suggest an origin like that for 129 and 130. The time at 

 this origin would be 17h. 17m., from which it would be anticipated that the times of arrival in England 

 would for P 3 be 18.47, at Victoria, B.C., 18.37, at Bombay 18.11, and at Manila 18.2, which are not 

 widely different from what was observed.
