Sept. 24th.— A.B. seen from about 9h 30m to llh at least, 60° to 80° horizontal extent illu- 

 mined ; bank at times 3° to 5° high. I saw no streamers, but did not watch many minutes. 



Sept. 2.5th — A.B. suspected; breaks in the clouds in the N., showing what seemed more 

 than usual light. Uncertain. 



Sept. 27th.— The N. seemed to have a slight whitish tinge, but I saw no bank or arch. At 

 lOli 5m I saw for about three minutes what I took to be a streamer, near N. 5° E., about 4'> 

 long, and moving westward. Some small clouds just then embarrassed observation. I pre- 

 sume there is a slight A.B. this evening. 



Oct. 9th.— About 60° horizontal extent illumined. Much of the time an arch, and once a 

 group of dim streamers, not reaching higher than 10°. 



Oct. 21st.— About 7h many streamers, not very bright, tallest reaching altitude of about 15®, 

 drifting westward ; 50° to 70° of horizontal extent illumined, with faint arch.
