to death here because of their fear of
Il more terrible death.
Details that have been received dur
ing the last two days prove that the

AS the eruptions continue, the mouth
of Mont Pelec grows in size. 1t is now
of enormous proportions. Morne La

has been completely swallowed. There
seems to be side pressure in the crat-
