Where have you been, that you
have not heard this matter discussed, and do not understand that the moon
is certain to come into collision with the earth in a very short time?"
He seemed thoroughly alarmed, and I soon found that all the people shared
his feeling. The movement of the earth carried us out of sight of the moon
in a few hours, but after a brief rest everybody was on the watch again at

moon increased rapidly from this time. Nothing else was talked of,
business was well-nigh suspended, and the newspapers neglected everything
else to tell about the unparalleled natural phenomenon. Speculation was
rife as to what would be the end, and what effect would follow a union of
the earth with its satellite.
While this discussion was going on, the unwelcome visitor was approaching
with noticeable rapidity at every revolution of the earth, and the immense
dark shadow which it now made, as it passed beneath the sun, seemed
ominous of an ill fate to our world and its inhabitants.
