(Dunnellon Advocate .

Few people who have been watching
the comet the past few weeks expect
to witness its next appearance seven
ty-five years hence and few people can
remember its last visit. but Dunnellon
has one citizen who was just old
enough at the time to get a vivid i'm
preston of it When Halley's comet
made its last appearance - years ago
r. L. Ray, the proprietor of the city
Jewelry Store, was a small boy living
in the hills of Vermont, where the
stars shine brightly and celestial
spectre is most plainly observable. He
has a distinct recollection of its ap-
pearance. He says it looked like a
star as large a mans hat. with a
tail extending up across the sky ap-
proximately 75 to 100 yards. At the
time he most distinctly calls to mind
the sky was red and shooting stars
seemed to be going in all directions.
and in the midst this phenomena and
direful predictions and stories told by
elderly people he actually expected the
crack of doom and the destruction of
everything at any moment. At that
time the newspapers and magazines
were not to be found in every house
hold as now, and they did not keep
people posted to it's route of travel
as now. Predictions of war. of the
end of the world and the like We're rife
and no wonder young Ray then
watched it with fear and trembling
Mr. Ray was 80 years old last Deem
Der and was of course too young in
1885 to make close observations, but
people who remember seeing Haley
comet on it's last trip by the earth are
few and he can give details about as
accurately as those who are now in
the 90s.
He is much Interested in il this
time and has been up quite often in
the early morning to watch its APP
prOach. The impression it makes
now, however. is quite different from
that he felt when its sweep across the
skies alarmed the people about his
Vermont home back in 1885

"a young man went crazy at the Ocala
Iron Works yesterday. Nay, nay
Palline: we admit that we rushed
to death just now and that 1t might
make us dizzy if some of our patrons
would pay up, but there is nothing as
serious that yet.
The young man in question is prob
ably unbalanced, but is not in any
way connected with the iron works
he simply wandered this way yester-
day and was SO we'll pleased with the
kind treatment he received that he
could not be induced to leave, and

sat Hp the other night with fear and
trembling. to witness the coming OF
Halley's comet and we suppose most
Of them are living yet. Some of the
Ocala darkies had a similar experience
last night. A certain congregation Of
colored people sat up last night on NJ
FiskeHs subdivision in the northeast
portion of the city with lively sense
that mother earth would be beating
tan bark by now and all the inhabi-
tants thereof would be whirling thru
space, at least many of them as
could clutch the tail Of the comet, at
the rate Of a million miles minute,
had the predictions of the white proph-
ct in their midst come true. All the
same the terrified darkies in that
crowd sang and prayer with a fervor
that had never been known in their
devotions. before, but the night wore
on. daylight dawned and the devotees
are still on good old mother earth
Prof. u! Fl. Brinson's cook is authority
for this statement, for she was one OF
the shouting and praying ones.

CLOSING IN ON THE COMET

The earth will strike the comets
tail about p. m. and will emerge to-
morrow morning at 4.
If not obscured by clouds, the comet
should be visible this evening, but as
the moon is shining, il will hardly
show UP very we'll
Just at present. the earth is closer
to the comet than il ever has been in
