Abstract
IN a letter published in NATURE of Mar. 28 (p. 486), Mr. F. J. Scrase, referring to an earthquake which was registered at Kew Observatory on Feb. 20, explained briefly how it was possible to recognise the abnormal depth of focus and to make an estimate of this depth. Confirmation of the deep focus of this earthquake has now appeared in a Seismological Bulletin issued by the Jesuit Seismological Association of America.
