When did the stars fall, as here predicted?
Answer
November 13,1833.
NOTE - On the morning of November 13, 1833, there occurred the most wonderful exhibition of
shooting stars the world has ever seen. Those who witnessed it, says Professor Olmsted, the celebrated
astronomer of Yale College, "probably saw the greatest display of celestial fireworks that has ever been
since the creation of the world, or at least within the annals covered by the pages of history." The extent of
this shower, he says, was such as to cover no inconsiderable part of the earth's surface." And, like the
darkening of the sun and moon, it was considered by many who saw it as "the harbinger of the coming of
the Son of man."
