Description: Jaggar (1927): "A dispatch from Dutch Harbor of December 31, 1926, states that Mount Makushin, on Unalaska in the Aleutian Islands, erupted the evening of December 30 with 'fountains of fire and masses of vapor,' making a spectacular display. A slight earthquake accompanied the eruption and there was fear for the safety of Makushin village."
