lost husbands or wives, parents or children, all de-
stroyei in an instant.
What seems wonderful. not a single one who had
been to our prayer meeting that day persisted, every
one escaped. Some Of them almost mirlculOusly.
About ten Of the school children had been 10 battle at
the rlyine about two miles below where the eruption
broke cut. and saw it begin, and ran for their lives,
barely escaping.
The school teacher had gone to a village at the foot
Of the pail. 10 give notice of the prayer meeting the
next day, and the eruption came down both sides,
leaving only the one house where he was, and the
few people who Were in II, completely surrounding
them but they afterwards crawled over the bank of
earth and came to US. His wife and friends were all
lost. The villages on the shore were totally destroyed
by the tidal wave that rushed in Immediately after
the earthquake, and the eruption reaching the sea
under ground, and many persisted. The earth erup-
ton swallowed up 81 persons, aud the sea more still.
MIR. Richardson started again for Kau on Monday
morning, april 9th, reaching kapspala ut noon on
Tuesday; but the earthquakes continued very often
and severe, so that he started on his return TO Hilo
in two or three hours, sleeping on the big sand plain
in the night. When the clouds lifted up he saw a
great lava flow in the region of Waiohinu or Kahuku,
extending TO the sea apparently about kaalualu Bay.
As he passed kilauea he could see no fire or smoke.
He arrived here yesterday, Thursday noon, and with
two other white men, and several natives, got provi-
sions and water, and sailed ON the sloop Lire Yankee
last night for Kau, in hopes of being able to rescue
any people who might be in any danger of the volcano.
P-S.-The next day after the eruption and earth
quake, on looking carefully We saw that there had
been small eruptions of earth all along in the edge of
the woods from directly above MIR. Richardson's
house, all along to above our house, a distance of four
miles or more. The main body of the surface flow
was nearly a mile wide and nearly three miles long.
Now IA stream Of water runs through it and far below
it. The bank of earth looks first like n great flow of
red and brown da, but, is moist clayey soil loosely
thrown up some 10 or 20 feet high.
We again copy the memoranda of earthquakes as
rendered to the Ga-eiie by its correspondents at Keala-
kekua.
