Transcription: From Mr George Brown who returned from Linkville one day last week we learn that the residents of that burg were treated to a shock of an earthquake at about 3 o'clock on the morning of the 8th instant. They were startled from their slumbers by a sort of a rumbling noise, what they supposed at first to be a team running through the streets and Mr. Roberts who sleeps in his store, and that as he awoke he heard the rattling of the crockery on the shelves and at the same time experienced a sort of undulating motion of the building, but could not discern in what direction the shock came from, but believed it to be from east to west. |
