Scientific paper

AT 5.30 p.m. yellow lights tinged with red were coming up all round the horizon; these at intervals formed indistinct columns to the south-west and north-west. At 6.30 there were faint reddish lights forming fans at different points; these were succeeded by fed and orange lights that rose forming glows, columns, and pencils; while at 7.30 a bright silver-white arch appeared to the north-the horns from this arch were pencils of white, which seemed to cross the arch; they were very numerous, appearing and disappearing nearly instantaneously; from about four to seven appeared at one time. Some of them were very long, shooting up to the zenith. After the arch had dissolved away, brilliant narrow, well-defined, thin columns of silver light shot up, the most marked coming up to the north-west at 7.40; this darted up suddenly, and moved gradually southward, and when about due west, close to the church tower, it disappeared at 7.45.
