| Transcription: 1880 AUGUST 22. 1:25 p.m. South Vancouver Island and northwest Washington generally felt this shock. In Victoria the rumbling motion seemed to be from south to north. Plaster was cracked, loose bricks fell, and some persons ran into the street. At 9 a.m. on the same day a slight jolt was felt in Vic- toria. The main earthquake was felt in Saanich and Esquimalt. At Cowi- chan the boats were shaken but at Nanaimo the tremor was not felt. Port Townsend and Seattle, like Victoria, felt the earthquake and at Somenos there were two gun-like shocks although Somenos appears to be north of the main area of the disturbance. Col. |
