Harrisburg, Pennsylvania: September 30, 1896.
A ball of fire, the size of the sun was flashed out into the blackness from the southwest and hung for a full minute in the heaven. Those who saw it say it died away slowly; not with the flashing brilliancy and sudden extinguishing of a meteor, but changing from white to red, and then fading like dying coal. This was before the advent of airplanes and the world only knew kites, balloons, and Zeppelins in the sky. Interestingly, this sighting took place during a hurricane.
