Abstract
THE first of the earthquake shocks felt on the 18th inst. in Ireland, Wales, and the West of England was evidently one of unusual strength for this country, and it is very desirable that both it and the subsequent slighter shocks should be thoroughly investigated, with a view to discovering their origin and their relations to one another. As I have been engaged for several years in working at our British earthquakes, and am now occupied in studying these recent shocks, I should be greatly obliged if you would allow me to ask your readers who felt the shocks for assistance in obtaining the necessary materials.
