Abstract
SINCE the publication of my paper in NATURE of September 27, in which I discussed observations of the fireball of August 26 and its drifting-streak, I have received many additional descriptions which show that some of the earlier reports were not very accurate. The results I derived for the direction and rate of motion of the streak have therefore to be considerably amended to agree with the new materials.
