Title: Correspondence - A Large Fireball. Authors: Denning, W. F.
At 9h. 58m. on February 3, a very large meteor, or fireball, as it may appropriately be called, was imperfectly seen at this city. At the time of its appearance, the sky was much clouded, though not entirely overcast, and became suddenly illuminated by what I at first considered to be several sustained flashes of lightening.
