One Minute Essay

"The Dark Day. occurred on May
10, 1850.
The Darkness began at 10 a. m. and
continued until the middle of the next
night. 1t was during the Revolution
ary war, and the extent of the 0bscur.
alton was sufficient to be apparent
throughout New England, but with diff.
ference Of degree and duration in diff
ferent places.
The darkness was not total, but it
was sufficient to send the fowls TO
roost, and TO strike terror TO supersti-
tious minds.
Prof. Samuel Williams of Harvard
described the event in the first volume
of the "Memoirs of the American Aca-
DENY of Arts and Sciences" published
in Boston in 1885. He said
'The appearance and effects were
such as tended to make the prospect ex-
tremely dull and gloomy. Candles were
lighted up in the houses; the birds, hav.
ing finished their evening songs, dis
appeared and became silent; the cocks
were growing all around us as at break
Of day; objects could not be disting.
uished but very little distances, and
everything bore the appearance and
gloom Of night.
No certain scientific explanation of
this ever has been made.
