reached the edge of tho terrace it raced suddenly down the slop©, spread out 
in a sheet at the tap of the lower terrace* end again raced down the slope of 
tho lower terrace la a broad sheet* In fifteen minutes it had reached the 
east base of the cone, a distance from its origin of perhaps fa) meters* 
By this time an offshoot, perched on the steep slop# of the lower terrace had

This flow was followed by increased eruptions from both the south crater 
and the new vent, the south orator quietly, although ejecting such material to
