SOUNDS CONNECTED WITH THE EARTHQUAKE. \\] 



Those arc as follows : — 



1. The major axis of the elongated oval enclosed by the 



innermost isosoismal line coincides very nearly with the 

 Kyaukkvan fault. 



2. A relationship is evident between the places where the 



maximum intensities were experienced and the greatest 

 damage done, and the known course and probable con- 

 tinuation of that fault. 



3. The railway was bent close to that point where it crosses 



the Kyankkyan fracture, but quite undamaged at the 

 places where it traverses the other faults of the plateau. 



It is not known that any fresh surface displacement took place 

 as a result of the shocks, though it is improbable that such was 

 the case.
