Abstract

THE publication of Mr. Davison's paper “On the Study of Earthquakes in Great Britain,” in NATURE of the 7th inst. (p. 346) furnishes me with an opportunity of making a few remarks, followed by a suggestion as to the mode of recording the effects of seismic disturbances of the earth's crust on the apparent change of position, especially of vertical objects, in the field of vision of the observer.
