404 Meteors of November, 1868. 
Let us apply these principles to the meteor to which the 
above observations refer. The time of appearance at New 
Haven was only approximate, and the other observations in- 
dicate 1" 16" 20s as the correct New Haven time. We saw it 
pass down nearly vertically 2° north of J upiter. 
At Haverford it appeared, as the diagram shows, above and 
probably to the east of Polaris, and passed a little below (say 
3” or 4° below), « and ¢ Cassiopeiw. The general direction 
of its observed paths, the character and colors of the train, and 
the small number of the unconformable meteors, mark this as 
an undoubted member of the November group, and authorize 
us to assume that. its direction was from the radiant in Leo. 
This assumption, and the distance above named from f and 
A Nate imply that the path passed 10° or 12° above 
olaris,
