harbor of Messina and one of the Off
GERS told of the occurrences, as fol-
lows:
"At halfpast five in the morning the
sea suddenly became terribly agitated,

and shake it. Other craft nearby were
similarly treated and the ships looked
like bits of cork bobbing about in a
tempest. Almost Immediately tidal
wave of huge proportions swept across
