TO FIND LENGTH OF DAY OR NIGHT. 
At any time of the year add 12 hours to the time of 
the sun’s setting, and from the sum subtract the time of 
rising for the length of the day. Subtract the time of 
setting from 12 hours, and to the remainder add the time 
of rising next morning for the length of the night. These 
rules are equally true for apparent time.
