Transcription: People here are not through wondering about the earthquake which took place Friday. The shock, or shocks, were very emphatic here, and everybody who happened to be in buildings, especially in upper stories, felt the phenomenon. The greatest diversity of opinion exists concerning the earthquake. Some contend it was accompanied by a deep, subterraneous noise which appeared to pass under the city. Others did not hear the noise, but felt two shocks. Indeed there are many who claim there were three distinct earthquake shocks Friday, one about 3 p. m. and the other two quickly following one another about 6:23 p. m. |
