Nov. 21st. — A considerable displ.ay of the A.B., commencing as early as 6h, and continuing as 

 late as lOh 30m at least. There was no great activity. About 90° horizontal extent illumined, 

 and no streamers reached above 35° while I watched. There was frequently a well defined 

 arch; then large luminous spots ; occasional streamers. 



Dec. 5th. — At 2h a. m. of 6th the sky was clear, and there appeared to be some auroral light 

 in N., but not certain.
