Scientific paper

ON Wednesday night the 6th November, whilst looking from this place over the sea, directly west, a few minutes before ten o'clock, I saw a meteor of large size subtending I should think one-sixth the angular magnitude of the moon. It was accompanied by a short scintillating train, and moved slowly quite parallel with the horizon directly north. Its elevation was about 15°, and its rate of motion I should think 1½° per second. The night was dark and somewhat cloudy, and the line described by the meteor seemingly quite straight.
