Abstract
YESTERDAY morning, August 11, I watched the northern sky for shooting stars from a place near Baddeck, Nova Scotia, from 0h. 30m. to 2h. 15m. (Atlantic time). During this period I observed forty-nine meteors—mostly faint—forty-one of which appeared to radiate from the constellation Perseus.
