Falkirk Tryst Report: Sheep and Cattle Market Surge
The Falkirk tryst drew a crowd of Isoglish dealers amid brisk demand for sheep and cattle. Prices rose since last October with black faced wedders selling around 20s to 24s per head, cheviots 18s to 24s, ewes 9s to 13s. Cattle traded heavily, with two year olds at 6 to 10 guineas and large stock at 10 to 16 pounds per head. The market cleared rapidly, police checked disturbances, and counterfeiters were nabbed while Highland drovers faced theft risks of collies and dogs. Falkirk, 13 October 1824.

Lunar Rainbow Seen Over Middleton Scotland Shines briefly
A rare lunar rainbow was observed near Middleton Linlithgowshire twelve miles west of Edinburgh on a Friday night. The pale arc appeared fully formed across a dull sky and faded within about three minutes. The report notes the moon’s light produced a plainer, less vibrant halo, explains its rarity, and cites historical observations by Aristotle Gemma Frisius Sennert Suellius and others with later 18th century accounts from Derby Trevaux Hijon and Issilstein among others.
