INTENDENCIA OF COQUIMBO.
Serena, June 3, 1851.
Senor Ministro: On the 26th of May last, at seventeen minutes past one
in the afternoon, an earthquake was felt here which was so severe and
prolonged that all the population were forced to rush into the streets
and plazas. Its duration was about a minute and a half, and its
direction was from north to south. No damage was occasioned here nor in
any other department of the province. But such has not been the case in
those of Atacama, especially in Freirina, where, according to notices
received, there has been considerable injury, of which I advise your
Excellency (U. S.) JUAN MELGAREJO.
God preserve you.
JUAN MELGAREJO.
To the Minister of the Interior.
