Abstract
A FINE Aurora was seen last night, or this morning, from 1 to 3 A.M. It first appeared as a transverse band from N.E. to S.W., and passed in that course far South of the Zenith, or between Arcturus and Mars. Subsequently it spread laterally and upwards; presently radiated from near the Zenith to all azimuths; and at 2.30 A.M. some of the rays N.E. were strongly pink.
