Abstract
ONE of the flashes of lightning during the heavy storm of September 8–9 at Oxford, was of so unusual a form that I venture to send a sketch of it to NATURE. Although a good many of the discharges struck downwards to earth, a considerable number passed horizontally from cloud to cloud, and most of these were very evidently branched at both ends.
