due to light-passing through the earth's atmosphere over the sunrise sunset line. it has often been suggested that the wea ther, along the sunrise-sunset line studied for the interpretation of the peculiarities of this illumination. This. however, has never been done; and, in dred, to enflect information about the weather along the whole sunrise-sunset line, over all the terrestrial area swept by the great circle during an eclipse of the mom would be an expensive and laborious task, even if the very high lati-† tudes through which it always passes were not inaccessible.

The acctised stated that he was student of anatomy. The slips of paper, gecording to the accused, were all con pected with his studies The sheet con laining 30 rows of characters represented the different days of å calendar" month and is used to see how the pulse varied.:

The accused' tok the Court that the pulse heats in the morning varied from those in the evening. A wound, accord; ing to him, inflicted on the head at a certain hours on decertain day required a certain kind of medicine. He further elaborated his puzzling story by adding that in man'", was struck of the 2011. day of the moon the blood pleškure would be on the stomach.
