Scientific paper

ON the night of November 28, at about six in the evening, I went to the window to look at the moon, and saw, as it were, a second moon behind the other. The effect was so like what one sometimes experiences from suddenly going out of a very light room, or other causes, that at the time I fancied it was only a defect in my sight. On going into my son's room an hour afterwards he said: ``If something is not gone wrong with my eyes, there are two moons out to night.'' On this I went out again, but saw only the one moon as usual. Later in the evening a young girl who had been meeting a friend at the Montreux train, said her friend had said the moon looked queer all the while she was in the train. The night previous a pretty severe shock of earthquake occurred in Geneva and Lausanne, and a few hours after we had observed the moon on the 28th, a very violent gale and snowstorm took place, and lasted for about six or eight hours. I am not scientific enough to know whether the ``rosy glow,'' reported on November 28 by Mr. Leslie of Southampton, can have any connection with this, or whether my letter will interest your readers.
