Scientific paper

At a quarter to five yesterday afternoon, when the sun had scarcely set and no star was visible, I and another inhabitant of this place saw a large blue meteor issue from a height of twenty degrees above the north-west horizon, and fall in a sharp curve for, say fifteen degrees, until it disappeared behind some woods. In falling it scattered large fragments behind it, but retained its nucleus, beside which Mars looked quite sickly. How vivid must the meteoric light have been !
