They were between the ship and a mountain. The mountain was about 6,000 feet high. The lights seemed to be globular. They moved sometimes massed, but sometimes strung out in an irregular line. They bore "northward," until lost to sight. Duration two hours. The next night the lights were seen again. They were, for a time, eclipsed by a small island. They bore north at about the same speed and in about the same direction as speed and direction of the _Caroline_. But they were lights that cast a reflection: there was a glare upon the horizon under them. A telescope brought out but few details: that they were reddish, and seemed to emit a faint smoke. This time the duration was seven and a half hours. Then Capt. Norcock says that, in the same general locality, and at about the same time, Capt. Castle, of H.M.S. _Leander_, had seen lights. He had altered his course and had made toward them. The lights had fled from him. At least, they had moved higher in the sky. _Monthly Weather Review_, March, 1904-115: Report from the observations of three members of his crew by Lieut. Frank H. Schofield, U.S.N, of the U.S.S. _Supply_: Feb. 24, 1904. Three luminous objects, of different sizes, the largest having an apparent area of about six suns. When first sighted, they were not very high. They were below clouds of an estimated height of about one mile. They fled, or they evaded, or they turned. They went up into the clouds below which they had, at first, been sighted. Their unison of movement. But they were of different sizes, and of different susceptibilities to all forces of this earth and of the air. _Monthly Weather Review_, August, 1898-358: Two letters from C.N. Crotsenburg, Crow Agency, Montana: That, in the summer of 1896, when this writer was a railroad postal clerk--or one who was experienced in train-phenomena--while his train was going "northward," from Trenton, Mo., he and another clerk saw, in the darkness of a heavy rain, a light that appeared to be round, and of a dull-rose color, and seemed to be about a foot in diameter. It seemed to float within a hundred feet of the earth, but soon rose high, or "midway between horizon and zenith." The wind was quite strong from the east, but the light held a course almost due north. Its speed varied. Sometimes it seemed to outrun the train "considerably." At other times it seemed to fall behind. The mail-clerks watched until the town of Linville, Iowa, was reached. Behind the depot of this town, the light disappeared, and was not seen again. All this time there had been rain, but very little lightning, but Mr. Crotsenburg offers the explanation that it was "ball lightning." The Editor of the _Review_ disagrees. He thinks that the light may have been a reflection from the rain, or fog, or from leaves of trees, glistening with rain, or the train's light--not lights.
