L'Annee
Scientifique,
1888-75:
That,
Dec.
13,
1887,
there
fell,
in
Cochin
China,
a
substance
like
blood,
somewhat
coagulated.
Annales
de
Chimie,
85-266:
That
a
thick,
viscous,
red
matter
fell
at
Ulm,
in
1812.
We
now
have
a
datum
with
a
factor
that
has
been
foreshadowed;
which
will
recur
and
recur
and
recur
throughout
this
book.
It
is
a
factor
that
makes
for
speculation
so
revolutionary
that
it
will
have
to
be
reinforced
many
times
before
we
can
take
it
into
full
acceptance.
Year
Book
of
Facts,
1861-273:
Quotation
from
a
letter
from
Prof.
Campini
to
Prof.
Matteucci:
That,
upon
Dec.
28,
1860,
at
about
7
A.M.,
in
the
northwestern
part
of
Siena,
a
reddish
rain
fell
copiously
for
two
hours.
A
second
red
shower
fell
at
11
o'clock.
Three
days
later,
the
red
rain
fell
again.
The
next
day
another
red
rain
fell.
Still
more
extraordinarily:
Each
fall
occurred
in
"exactly
the
same
quarter
of
town."

It
is
in
the
records
of
the
French
Academy
that,
upon
March
17,
1669,
in
the
town
of
Chatillon-sur-Seine,
fell
a
reddish
substance
that
was
"thick,
viscous,
and
putrid."
American
Journal
of
Science,
1-41-404:
Story
of
a
highly
unpleasant
substance
that
had
fallen
from
the
sky,
in
Wilson
County,
Tennessee.
We
read
that
Dr.
Troost
visited
the
place
and
investigated.
Later
we're
going
to
investigate
some
investigations--but
never
mind
that
now.
Dr.
Troost
reported
that
the
substance
was
clear
blood
and
portions
of
flesh
scattered
upon
tobacco
fields.
He
argued
that
a
whirlwind
might
have
taken
an
animal
up
from
one
place,
mauled
it
around,
and
have
precipitated
its
remains
somewhere
else.
