Description of the earthquake in the city of Erzincan
“There was a great earthquake on the second night of Ramazan and the town of Erzincan completely sunk: however, one hamam and Great Mosque were saved, the rest was demolished. The vali of Erzerum and all his retainers were killed; only his steward and swoed-bearer and a few others were saved: because his secretariat was outside (the town) they were saved”.
