The Work of an Aerolite
A phenomenon is reported from Toth-Aradaez, in Hungary, where an
aerolite of eighty pounds weight is said to have fallen with such force
that it opened a spring of water in the earth. As the neighborhood was
badly supplied with water the inhabitants are talking of the occurrence
as providential. The aerolite has been purchased for $1,000 by an
Anglo-Australian who has a collection of such things, and who happened
to be the guest of Count Harnon-court whose seat is near Toth-Aradaca. -
