Abstract
AT 7.25 a.m., April 18, a meteor was observed by an inmate of my house. The sun was shining clearly in an almost unclouded sky when, in looking up, three bright stars were seen in rapid succession shooting over the trees in a northerly direction. The person who made the observation was much excited with the sight, never having witnessed fire-balls of such brightness and rapidity before.
