Other Qaakes Tt was about a ysar ago that earth sliocks began te be moticed in New England. On Seplember 20, 1824, points along the southern Maine coast and in Vermont reported feel- ing tremors. Then on January 7 ot this year eastern Massachusetts was slightly rocked. Ob February 3% the most severe shock that has been felt in New Eng- land since 1886 rocked the greater portion of the section and consid- erable damage was reported. At that time Harvard university scientists tald there was no reason to expect another quake of severe intensity in the Immedtate future. A On April 24 siight shocks’ were felt at New Bedford, Middleboro and Brockton, In southern part of Massachusetts. The next month there was a dfstinct rumble, similar to an earthquake, in Lynn and Swampscott. This was believed to be an outcome of the tidal wave that swept Ontario on that date. ‘Thege shocks combined with oth ers in other sections, have caused scientists to call the past year the most significant in earthquake his- tory, Purely Local Cambridge, Mass, Oct. 8 (#—The Harvard se¢ismograph recorded a thickening of the line made by the instrument at 8:56 a. m., today, con- tinuing about a minute. “It may be assumed from this" said Assoclate Professor Kirtley F.

A statement by the foundation €ald It was desired to set at rest rumors that earthquakes might be expected on or about November 1. “The foundation has had many in- quiries with regard to the date of November 1 as a date when earth quakes may be expected. There is no basis for any specific date and no means of prediction trom this or any other date. Tha reason for these statements regarding November 1 has been carefully examined and seems to rest on two grounds; first that of the 17 earthquakes of num- ber VII and VIII intensity which have any relationship to this aren and which would be destructive un- der many modern conditions, all ¥ [ ed In late fall, winter or spring; second that fhe gre bon earthquake of November 1, 1775, effect on was followed y the great Boston earthquake of wh h produced a deep w England's mind, November 18, 1775."
