of Nunziaia and Puntalazzo and
through the little hamlet of Mascali
marked today the path Of an ever
advancing wall of molten lava
which flowed from the crater of
Mount Etna down the beautiful

Moving forward, crushing houses,

main lava stream had joined with
several others from the crater and
was nearly fourteen feet thick and

Houses crImbled under the in
