by "A brief lull.

The outbreak was accompanied by an
incessant and confused cannonading.

decreased, but the noise of the boiling
caldron is still audible in the dis

steaming all day long. Sand fell
every where from until half past
two this morning. At southern
points the sand is half an inch thick,
the depth gradually increasing toward
the volcanic cone, where there We're
large showers of pebbles stones and
cinders.
Kingston and other southern points
of the island have been damaged.
Reports from the Windward district
are awaited.
This eruption caused darkness at
