I am not sure if this image is the real thing, and I definitely can't read the finer print. For those able to track down the original newspaper, please share the source. I assume the event took place in the 18th century, for Mr. Washington died in 1799.
Do we have any Perrines in the 18th century?
Looks to be published in 1896.
I found this tidbit while reading
"...wasn't noticed on account of the war"
Well, someone noticed, right?
I guess they mean the lay-man.
I wonder how they defined the limits of the atmosphere back then because apparently it "
went through the atmosphere" and only the big brained scientists were able to notice it.
Moving on
Where exactly did these people get these
crazy ideas about poison gas, fire and brimstone in the sky and deluges?
Was it really only based on scripture?
Could it be that they had multiple references?
Seems like they might have had historical references to the dangers of comets.
Or perhaps they'd recently lived through one and knew the effects first or second hand?
The following is from a book written by Ignatius Donnelly, Published 1883, titled
Ragnarok: The Age of Fire and Gravel
I may not fully agree with Mr. Donnelly's model of the universe but the reports of the general conflagrations are compelling and are something I had not heard of before.
This section alone may help account for some of the
absolute destruction in the 1800's
Quoted from page 415:
"For instance, we have in our possession a copper cent taken from the pocket of a dead man in the Peshtigo Sugar Bush, which will illustrate our point.
This cent has been partially fused, but still retains its round form, and the inscription upon it is legible. Others, in the same pocket, were partially melted and yet the clothing and the body of the man were not even singed."
Could this not explain the phenomenon of building destruction during the civil war?
If metals could be melted in the pocket of a man while his clothes escaped being turned to cinder, could that be a hint toward the
electromagnetic nature of these events?
There are more passages within this book (If the title hasn't tipped you off) that purport a large swath of silt or gravel was deposited some time ago upon the Earth.
See the following
Sounds a lot like what we've all been looking at here on Stolen History.
I have to leave it there for now 'cause it's entirely too late.
I'd appreciate any input on whether or not I should make a stand-alone thread based off some of this info.
Let me know what you think.
