AN UNEASY NIGHT
FORTY-THREE EARTHQUAKE SHOCKS By Telegraph— Association. Blenheim, Alay 2. Round about Kaikoura and in the vicinity of the Clarence IRiver bridge residents had an uneasy night on Thursday during a series of earthquake shocks, which were more severe there than in the- Blenheim district. i It is said that 43 shocks were counted on Thursday night, the worst being at 11.30. Shakes were felt at intervals also throughout yesterday. There were two shocks last night. The opinion of residents is that the disturbance centred in the ocean off the coast, a mile south of Clarence. A crack opened along the coast road, and land on the seaward side of the crack appears to have subsided. Telephones around about Clarence bridge were thrown out of order.
