October 5, 1887.— At 2 h fog was beginning to blow across the 
hill top, and on it a distinct lunar fog-bow was seen, with traces of 
faint second bow outside it. The following measurements of the 
inner bow were got : — 
Radius to inside edge, . . . 35° 4' 
„ outside edge, . . . 41° 0' 
A similar lunar fog-bow was seen at 3 h ; there appeared to be a 
faint trace of red about the outer edge of the inner bow. On both 
these occasions a faint white patch of light was seen round the 
shadow of the observer’s head, which was probably a lunar glory. 
The fog-bow was seen again at 4 h and 5 h , but without any glory. 
The following measurements were made at 4 h : — 
Radius to inside of inner bow r , . . .36° 3' 
,, outside of inner bow, . . .41° 0' 
October 15, 1887. — At 14 h double fog-bow and glories observed; 
no measurements got. At 14 h 10 m , and again at 16 h 10 m , a solar 
corona was seen, triple each time. The following measurements 
were got : —
