The London Evening Post reports a catastrophic earthquake spreading from Tripoli through Syria on October 36, devastating Barons, Attaquire, Seyte, St. John d Acre, Saphet, and Damascus. Dozens of towns collapsed, ژ thousands died, and Saphet is identified as the quake center. The French camp was damaged, and residents fled to tents as cities lie in ruin.
