Scientific paper

ON page 263 of Lord Tennyson's ``Memoirs'' there is mention of a ``red rainbow'' seen at sunset in 1882. As it was considered noteworthy by Sir Norman Lockyer, and was the first he had heard of, it may be of interest respecting sunset phenomena that near Hayward's Heath, on June 29 of this year, at sunset there was a rainbow entirely of a clear rose-pink against heavy storm clouds over half the sky, and facing a deep golden sunset in a clear sky. It was a perfect arch, and lasted for some minutes. Just for a moment I saw a streak of pale sea-green in the midst of the rose colour.
