| Résumé | (disponible en anglais seulement)
The St Lawrence earthquake occurred at 9h 19m 20s p.m., E.S.T., Saturday, February 28, 1925. The observational data obtained have been thoroughly studied at the
Dominion Observatory. The paper presents a brief résumé of the various lines of investigation which have been followed during the past two years. The reasons are outlined which seem to warrant the conclusion that the earthquake occurred on a fault
crossing the St Lawrence near the mouth of Rivière Ouelle, of which fault that seaward side snapped upward at the time of the shock, that landward side suffering a simultaneous, sudden, horizontal displacement toward the northeast. |
