He found that all the clocks in the house had stopped at that hour. Residents at Serangoon, Tanglin and Pasir Panjang did not feel the tremor.

Note: A very severe earthquake had occurred at Bencoolen in Sumatra. Houses collapsed and there were at least 11 dead. The earthquake led to an upheaval of the sea and a ship, the "Kintuck", (4000 tons) was driven ashore on to coral reef.
