Florence, WI Earthquake Damages Mill, Sept. 1889
A WISCONSIN EARTHQUAKE!!! BIG PAPER MILL AT FLORENCE BADLY DAMAGED!!!
Kaukauna, Wis., Sept. 10. -- The village of Florence, a small place
one mile above here, was shaken on Saturday by what is believed to have
been an earthquake. A booming, rumbling sound that seemed to issue from
the earth was heard, and people in the vicinity were horror-stricken,
believing that something terrible was about to happen. The disturbance
of the earth's interior seemed to have been directly under the spot
where stands the immense pulp and paper mill of the Van Nortwick-Rogers
company, and great damage was done to the structure. This mill was but
recently completed. It is built entirely of stone, and is the largest
paper and pulp mill in the United States.
~~~In order to get power to turn the great mill the waters of the Fox River
were dammed by a stone wall fourteen feet thick. Immediately following
the rumbling a crack three inches wide appeared in this wall, allowing
the water to escape through it. An examination of the mill showed
damages that will reach far into the thousands. The north and east
walls of the mill are cracked in many places and have separated from the
floor and roof several inches. All of the machinery in the north end
will have to be set over, as it is all out of place, many shafts being
bent. An artesian well on a bluff 200 feet above the mill has ceased to
flow since the occurrence.

Although tiny, look at the names these small earthquakes were given!!!
Looks like while everything is already shaking on a somewhat shaky scale. . . New Moon will be coming this week, too! Doesn't seem like it's been that long since the full moon but due to lot of cloud cover in my region, it's unknown! Now looking at exact moment coming March 2, 2022 at 12:38pm and so the New Moon Window will start Tuesday at around Noon Centrral Time, 1pm Eastern and 10:38am Pacific! You can almost count on shaking to coincide with all that!!!!!
