lrict Of Kawra, which was quite dry, was
suddenly filled with sheet Of water, the
extent Of which east and west was not
known, but lis breadth was generally six
miles, and its depth gradually increased
TO upwards of two feet, after which, 10 a
few hours, the water subsidized to about
half that quantity horsemen who crossed
this tract the day following the shock, de-
scribed a number Of cones Of soft sand ele-
waited above the water, the tops Of which
were bubbIing with air and water when
they passed.
As far as have learnt, the sandy bed Of
every dry river IN Hutch, was fiiled for a
short space of time with flood of water !;
the waters have the color and taste of the
soil from whence they were elected.
