I HAD a fine view of this superb display at Workington between midnight and 1 o'clock a.m., in a clear and bright starlit sky. The whole sky was filled with the light except a small area in the south-east. I could detect no colour except creamy-white, the general intensity being, to my mind, at times equal to full moonlight. Curtains of light surrounded a point just east of the zenith, which seemed to mark the ``hub'' of the display. The bright star (a) in Canes Venatici almost exactly marked this point, and filmy sheets of light seemed to dash upwards from the south-west and north-east horizons and merge together at this star. The only display I have ever seen to equal this was on 1907 February 14 at Motherwell, in the previous sun-spot maximum period. It was the fact that I could see the great sun-spot train on March 22 without telescopic aid that made me expect and look out for the aurora that night.
