Abstract
MR. AXEL COBLIN 1 has described an observation which has convinced him that the aurora can appear under the clouds. I have also observed a similar phenomenon; but in circumstances which made it possible for me to convince myself that the whole effect was an illusion and that the aurora was above and not below the clouds.
