AN EARTlrQUAKE
several Distinct Shooks Felt in Winnsboro
...Some of the Particulars.
One' of the severest earthquakes
ever experienced in this county occur
red on Tuesday night. There were no
unusual natural phenomena to forete'i
the coming shook-on the contrary all
nature eeemed calm and serene.- Atout.
10 o'clook, however, the people were
startled by a distant rumbling noise,
when In the twinkling of an eye,
houses began to shake, the earth rolled
and confusion generally was rampart.
People rushed from their houses in
mortal fear,' some yelled fire i others
murdeki It was a scene of the greatest
awe and confusion. This shock lasted
certainly thirty -seconds ' striking
terror to the bravest -hearts. It was
the strangest sensation imaginable.
With all the noise and -confusion, the
earth quaking under the feet, the
* bravest, were transfixed with fear.'
There was a general sigh of relief
" when it; was over. People regained
their accustomed equaminity when
they saw no loss of life or serious
damage. to property. In less then ten
minutes a i'umbling sound was hoard
again and immediately aftet' the same
*sensations were, experienced, but in a
much less degrees Then. coame a lull.
Afterwards another shook and another
until by 11 o'clock :twelve distinot and
* untmistakable shocks were experienced.
I'was a time of terrible suspense.
* No one kn0w but that the next one
would destroy ourstown/' People gen
erelly loft their houses. anticipating
more serious results from each sue
cessive shock. Froin 11 to 12 o'clock
everything was quiet, and the people
* -bellying the worst had come retired
for the night. Just as the town clock
' struck the honr of one, another shock
c,ame, but with little force. Abont five
mainutes later there was another almost
s severe as the 'rst. No 'one know
What the next minute would, bring
forth, and all stood in constant fear.
;From 10 o'clock, p. in., until 6, a. mn.,
there -were sixteen distinct shocks,
vatying nyoro or less in intensity.
There was a calmi until 9 o'clock, a. in.,
--Wednesdaj, wpheit another shook of
slight inten*ity Was er44ive.
There was "a lecture iti.the Court
iouse by Dr. Darker on lPhnnology,
There Was a farge crowd pretift, anid

lecturoe' closed "about -flye minutes

4ti first perceiving the seneatlon a'ose
jy t n .4tm@ to avaid a large piece of
plaster' falling from the ceiling. Many
private 'residences wore stripped of
plaetering.
Thquegrges were terrillyfrigi}tened.
They. all looked ' fox: Jadgmeut Diy;
The pisoners in jail implored the
Sherift to lot them out for fear the
hotse would fill upon them.
At'the negro.churcheseverybQdy fled
out of doors, windows and everywhere
else, but no one was hurt. , Everybody
laughs now and has a little joke, but
nobody but an Ignorant person could
look upon the thing without some
misgivings,
The Earthquake at Horeb.
.Me88r8. Ediors: A terrific earth
quake shook was,heaed and felt in this
community last 'night between 9 and
10 o'clock. The whole earth seemed
to rook like a cradle. In several in
stances parts of chifnneys were shaken
down and houses 'Ioked and rocked
to .such a frightftl extent that the
inmato fied 'f1on them. Twelve
lighter shoks followed at regular in
tervals, the last being about.8 o'clook.
The terror-stricken citizens *ould feel
home relief froin hating some scien
tifec reasons assigned for these unus
ual visitors. We experienced some=
thing of the same. lind several years
ago, which was apparently. not felt
elsewhere.
We have heard from several sections
of the county for several miles this
morning, and all tell the same terrible
tale. As I write another shock is jar
ring my desk. The earth seems like
a huge monster breathing heavily, and
emitting it with vehement rage. We
will anxiously await a hearing from
other sections. More anon.
