Extract

Two earthquake shocks have lately occurred in Argyleshire of so decided a character that a description of their effects, as observed at four of the Lighthouse stations on the west coast of Scotland, will, it is thought, be interesting to the Society.

The first shock occurred on the 11th March, and was observed at the Lighthouse station of Hynish in the island of Tyree, and at Sound of Mull, near Tobermory, the distance between the two places being about 34 statute miles.
