The Book of the Damned

In
Nature,
44-519,
Prof.
Copeland
describes
a
similar
appearance
that
he
had
seen,
Sept.
10,
1891.
Dreyer
says
(Nature,
44-541)
that
he
had
seen
this
object
at
the
Armagh
Observatory.
He
likens
it
to
the
object
that
was
reported
by
Eddie.
It
was
seen
by
Dr.
Alexander
Graham
Bell,
Sept.
11,
1891,
in
Nova
Scotia.
But
the
Old
Dominant
was
a
jealous
god.
So
there
were
different
observations
upon
something
that
was
seen
in
November,
1883.
These
observations
were
Philistines
in
1883.
In
the
Amer.
Met.
Jour.,
1-110,
a
correspondent
reports
having
seen
an
object
like
a
comet,
with
two
tails,
one
up
and
one
down,
Nov.
10
or
12,
1883.
Very
likely
this
phenomenon
should
be
placed
in
our
expression
upon
torpedo-shaped
bodies
that
have
been
seen
in
the
sky--our
data
upon
dirigibles,
or
super-Zeppelins--but
our
attempted
classifications
are
far
from
rigorous--or
are
mere
gropes.
In
the
Scientific
American,
50-40,
a
correspondent
writes
from
Humacao,
Porto
Rico,
that,
Nov.
21,
1883,
he
and
several
other--persons--or
persons,
as
it
were--had
seen
a
majestic
appearance,
like
a
comet.
Visible
three
successive
nights:
disappeared
then.
The
Editor
says
that
he
can
offer
no
explanation.
If
accepted,
this
thing
must
have
been
close
to
the
earth.
If
it
had
been
a
comet,
it
would
have
been
seen
widely,
and
the
news
would
have
been
telegraphed
over
the
world,
says
the
Editor.
Upon
page
97
of
this
volume
of
the
Scientific
American,
a
correspondent
writes
that,
at
Sulphur
Springs,
Ohio,
he
had
seen
"a
wonder
in
the
sky,"
at
about
the
same
date.
It
was
torpedo-shaped,
or
something
with
a
nucleus,
at
each
end
of
which
was
a
tail.
Again
the
Editor
says
that
he
can
offer
no
explanation:
that
the
object
was
not
a
comet.
He
associates
it
with
the
atmospheric
effects
general
in
1883.
But
it
will
be
our
expression
that,
in
England
and
Holland,
a
similar
object
was
seen
in
November,
1882.
