Scientific paper

I SAW the meteor described by Mr. Ingleby on February 26, about 6.20 P.M., Greenwich, from the railway platform at Gloucester. It was moving very slowly from right to left parallel with the horizon to the right of the moon, and a good deal below her; I should think two or three degrees at least. A bright track was left behind. The size must have been considerable for it was a very brilliant evening, and still almost daylight. No stars were visible in that part of the sky. I could not then see the position of Sirius, however. It was tolerably bright twenty minutes later. Gloucester is nearly due west of Ilford, and about 100 miles distant in a straight line.
