Mr. Tenney, of Exeter, N. H., quoted by Mr.

Gage to the “Historical Society.”

Dr. Adams, already quoted, wrote concerning

the night following the dark day: —

the evening got lost in going home. The

darkness was as uncommon in the night as it

was in the day, as the moon had fulled the day

before.”

This statement respecting the phase of the

moon proves the impossibility of an eclipse of

the sun at that time.
