Jeanneret, of ' "Marengo," Richmond, writes:-Re the reported falling of a meteor at about 12.30 a.m. on Friday, while returning from Hobart on Thursday night I observed the meteor and it was a wonderful sight. It started from about half-way up the arc of the sky towards the south, and travelled right across the heavens to about the same position in the east before going out. My attention was first attracted by the brilliant flare and then by a hissing sound. The meteor seemed shaped like a club, with a bluish light flaring from it, sometimes chang- ing to orange and forming a huge ball with a long tail. It lit up the whole surroundings and temporarily extin- guished the moonlight. When it reached about half-way down the arc east, it went out and could then be seen to be followed by a small red ball with sparks flying from it till it disappeared behind the hills. A few minutes later a low rumbling was heard. Viewed from Ris- don-road, about a mile out of Richmond, it seemed to fall near Sorell or the causeway. Re the suggestion that it may have been a flare from the fleet, it seemed too big and bright for that. Star shells were seen earlier in the evening, and the rumbling of guns was heard about 1 a.m. The Mercury Wednesday 14 February 1923
