Abstract
FATHER J. P. ROWLAND, S.J., has given in the Times of January 21 his determination of the epicentre of the earthquake of January 14. The records at six observatories, from Stonyhurst (34 miles) to Oxford (187 miles), agree fairly well with a position half a mile to the north-east of Hawes Junction and a time at the origin of 8h. 30m. 20s., G.M.T. The shock was also observed at Felton in Northumberland, 70 miles from the above epicentre.
