Scientific paper

AN interesting halo round the sun was seen a few miles from here, on Dartmoor, from 7.30 p.m. to sunset on June 7. The halo consisted of a double circle, the inner one having an angular radius of about fifteen to twenty degrees, with concentrations of light at the top and at the right extremity-the bottom of the ring was below the horizon, and the left extremity hidden by clouds-and a concentrated ray from the sun to the top of the circle. The outer circle was double the diameter of the inner one, and much fainter. A similar halo round the moon (with the exception of the outer circle) was observed the same evening.
