Excerpt from Report on the East Anglian Earthquake of April 22nd, 1884, Vol. 1
One point in connection with the report which will doubtless strike our readers is the general untrustworthiness Of what may be called common-place observations in any attempt to submit an earthquake to exact mathematical treatment. If our labours serve only to emphasize this inadequacy of non-instrumental methods Of observation, we feel that our efforts will not have been altogether exerted in vain. We can only add that we have made as much out of the materials at our disposal as we possibly could; whether we have made too much of our materials and have drawn unwarranted inferences we must leave to the judgment of our scientific readers.
