 Earthquake in Ohio

Friday morning at 3 o'clock Wellston O was visited by a most pronounced earthquake shock.  The first disturbance was of sufficient force to awaken many persons.  It was followed by two hard convulsive shakings of the earth in many places displacing household furniture.

Advices from Zanesville Portsmouth and Ironton and from Huntington W VA, state that the shock was felt distinctly at those places.

Emery County (UT) Progress May 25, 1901
