1) While the observer was screwing 
westwards to get the needle pointed, it 
suddenly began to go rather quickly 
eastwards. The above-quoted approximate 
value for the pointing was noted, where- 
upon the serew was loosened to follow the 
needle; but an attempt at pointing by 
the aid of the telescope failed im the 
rapid motion. The telescope was therefore 
quickly laid aside, and the following 
pointings made as nearly as possible coin- 
ciding with the line on the window of the 
box. 2) As the lamp had gone out, and the 
needle seemed to have come back almost 
to its original position, and appeared to 
be fairly quiet, the observations were dis- 
continued, and not recommenced until after 
supper. The sky was oyereast, but illu- 
minated as if the moon were shining behind 
the clouds; so there must have been a 
considerable amount of aurora borealis.
