"Mr URBAN,"
"ON May 24, about half an hour after six o'clock in the morning, the air being replete with watery particles of a pale duskish colour, and the atmosphere seeming to be equally spread with a very fine lamina, smooth and evenly suspended, there appeared a coloured halo above the sun (see the above representation) very fair and distinct, for a considerable time. The inner half of the semicircle was of a reddish, and the outer half of a light yellow colour, the bright spots on either side the sun terminated in far distant points, like the shadow of the earth in an eclipse of the moon; the corona, or inverted circle, was not so visible as one I observed a few years since: the bright spots disappeared first, then the vivid colour of the iris faded by degrees, extending itself to a stupendous arch before it totally disappeared."
"We have had very hot droughty weather, and still continues ever since the appearance of the halo. - The barometer unusually low, rising and falling almost every day a little, but low in the main from what might be expected this hot season."
"Yours, &c. S. PARROT."
"Near Kirkby Lonsdale, Westmorland, June 5."

"At a small distance from the bridge is Kirkby-Lonsdale, a small town, noted chiefly for the elegant view from the church-yard, and from a fine walk continued from it on the verge of a high slope. The prospect is diversified with rich meadows watered by the Lune, which makes two bold meanders, with gentlemen's seats, a wooded and cultivated tract creeping high up the hills, and a boundary beyond of various lofty fells, with Ingleborough shewing its distant top."
"On the side of the walk is an exploratory mount, surrounded by a ditch, judiciously placed, as it commands a distant view up the vale now called Lonsdale, which gives the addition to Kirkby, to distinguish it from other places of the same name. It is a parish of great extent, and a manor once belonging to the Abbey of St. Mary in York. At the dissolution it was granted to a family of the Roman name of Carus, still in being. After several transfers it remains at this time in the Earl, who takes his title from the vale."

"The mills of the town are remarkable, being built on the side of a steep bank, and worked by the water of a brook conveyed through the town. It sets in motion seven wheels, one above the other; one is for making snuff, another serves a fulling-mill. Formerly this town enjoyed a considerable manufacture of knit-stockings, but at present it is greatly declined."

Kirkby-Lonsdale is a neat, well paved, clean town, ornamented with several genteel houses, adjoining to some of which are elegant gardens.

hearsay:-  
Sketchbook no.13 of Theophilus Lindsay Aspland has a note:-
"In the yr. 1688, Kg. James 2nd. abdicated the throne & on 5th Novr. in the same yr the revolution was effected."
"Soon after these events had transpired a rumour spread through the N. that the abdicated monarch had raised a large army in France, & was waiting to make a descent on the Yorksh. coast, in hopes of gaing. his lost throne."
"This intelligence gave the Northmen an opportunity of showg. their attachment to the Prince of Orange, then King Wm. III."
"The Ld. Lieutt. issued his orders for raisg. the posse comitatus of the county of Westmd., who, obsequious to the mandate rushed to arms, & prepared to defend the kingdom against the expected invasion. The muster place for the hardy mountainneers was Millers' Close, near Kendal, from whence they marched to Kirkby Lonsdale, & hence the origin of the vulgar though popular rhyme:-"
""Eighty-eight was Kirkby fight
When never a man was slain;
They yat their meat, and drunk their Drink
And sae kom merrily hame again."
"p.119.120 Sayers Histy. of Westmd. / Kendl. 1847."
