SCENES IN REGGIO ON THE OÇASION OF THE 1905 EARTHQUAKE. The earthquake of 1905 was one of the most severe of our time, though nothing to compare with that of 1908, 5000 lives being lost. Despite warnings, inhabitants would insist on visiting the Cathedral to pray to their patron saints for help. They also camped in the square in front of the Cathedral.
