I Had very corred: Obfervations both of the Sun and 
Stars, the 26, 27, and 28th, for determining the 
exad Time by my Clock. 
For fome Minutes before the Eclipfe began, I ob- 
ferv’d the Sun with a Telefcope of 12 Foot, furni- 
Ihed with a Micrometer ; keeping that Part of the 
Limb in the middle of the Glals, where I expeded the 
Moon firfl to touch, and in lefs than four Seconds of 
Time, from the Moment I judged the Eclipfe begun, 
it was fo confiderably advanc’d, that I cannot doubt 
of having the Beginning to Icfs than three Seconds. I 
believe the exad Time of ending was within the fame 
Limit, notwithftanding that the Undulation of the Limb 
was then much greater than at the Beginning. The Parts 
eclipfed, meafured with the Micrometer, at the Time 
of the greateft Obfcuration, were 927 luch Parts as the 
Sun’s Vertical Diameter contained 1946 ; which was 
taken a little before the Beginning of the Eclipfe. 
The Sky was clear, and free from Clouds, till near 
the End, when a narrow one obfcured fbme part of 
the Sun’s Disk, but that part of the Limb where the 
Eclipfe ended, continued clear till after it was over.
