Abstract
A METEOR of surpassing brilliancy and great size was seen here on the 1st inst., just before 10 p.m. The course seemed to be from westwards towards the north-east. The meteor was of a vivid blue colour, and it lighted with its splendour the whole visible horizon. In a clear blue sky the harvest moon, on the wane, was at the time shining brightly.
