On 14-15 January 1988, a magnetic cloud with a local field topology consistent with an east-west aligned cylindrical flux-rope and which formed the driver of an interplanetary shock passed the earth. Using 0.5-4 MeV/n ion data from the instrument on IMP 8, the paper addresses the question of whether or not magnetic field lines within the magnetic cloud were connected to the sun. An impulsive solar particle event was detected inside the magnetic cloud strongly suggesting that the field lines were rooted at the sun.
