FOOTNOTES:
[31] These times correspond to about 9.10 and 9.25 P.M., Greenwich
mean time. The earthquake stopped a clock at the Royal Observatory of
San Fernando (Cadiz), at 8h. 43m. 54.5s. mean local time,
corresponding to 9h. 8m. 44s., G.M.T.
[32] The earthquake is also said to have been registered at the
observatory of Moncalieri, near Turin, but I have not been able to
ascertain the time of occurrence. A movement felt at about 10.20 P.M.
at Ramsbury, in Wiltshire, was attributed to the earthquake, though
the time is about an hour too late. On December 26th, an astronomical
clock was stopped at Brussels and its pillar displaced; and, on the
evening of the same day, the large telescope at the observatory was
also found to have been shifted. These effects, it is suggested, were
caused by the Andalusian earthquake, but the connection between them
seems to me very doubtful.
