"The mystery of the humming from the Broomgrove Power Station has been solved at last, not by the experts and engineers but by a member of the boiler-house staff at the station." "Since May last efforts have been made to find the origin of the hum. but it was not until an employee who has taken the keenest interest in the prohlem, crawled into ash-pit beneath the fire of one of the boilers that the trouble was traced to its root." "Immediately the employe[e] entered the pit he was nearly deafened by a terrific buzzing which seemed to vibrate through his whole body. He carried out a careful investigation, and then obtaining some sheet tin he placed over the bars at the bottom of the pit. Immediately the humming ceased." "Further investigations were subsequently made, as a result of which the Borough Electrical Engineer (Mr. Russell Ferguson) is able to state that the hum has been definitely eliminated." "Apparently the ash-pits beneath the boilers acted as big sound boxes, which produced the hum. The sounds passed out beneath the pits and out into the open."]

1926 Feb 26 / [The Dundas Minnows] / Toronto Daily Star, March 16. [XI; 583.  Newspaper clipping. ("The Dundas Minnows." Toronto Daily Star, March 16, 1926, (editorial). "On the 26th of February a remarkable phenomenon was reported from Dundas, Ont. After a heavy downpour of winter rain a pool was formed at a hollow place on one of the main streets, and in it were seen a great many dead minnows. These small fish had evidently come down from the sky in the heavy rain. There was no overflow from any lake, stream or sewer that could have brought them there." "The remarkable incident appeared in the Toronto press, was wired to all the newspapers in America, cabled to London, translated and sent to Paris, Berlin and Rome." "Next day The Star, having investigated the case, was able to furnish a simple explanation of the incident. Mr. Robert Manning of Dundas had planned to go fishing through holes in the ice. He had meant to go fishing on the Thursday of the heavy rainstorm, and so on the previous day he went to the sluice gate near the Hydro canal and netted a pail of minnows. The heavy rain of the next day caused him to postpone his trip, and as the minnows would not keep, he dumped the pail into the torrent of water rushing along the street. Later on a prominent citizen, seeing dead fish in a rain pool that had just fallen from the sky, naturally concluded that he was local eye witness to a marvel." "Thus ended the mystery. But when the mystery goes out of an affair, interest in it ends so far as the telegraphic and cable news agencies are concerned. While it was supposed that those fish had fallen from the sky they were marvel fish and worth cabling to the ends of the earth, but, as soon as it was known that they had come from Bob Manning's pail and that he had netted them in the ordinary way down by the Dundas sluice-gate, there was no marvel about them. Interest in them ended right there. So London, Paris, Berlin and Kalamazoo were not told about the bait pail and were left to think of those fish as having fallen from the sky. It will go down on scientific record in half a dozen languages as the Dundas incident." "The Star has been communicated with in regard to it by an expert in London. He has not heard of the bait pail, he believes the fish fell from the sky, but, being a cautious man and the author of a book on such phenomena, he seeks from us all the evidence that can be secured as to the authenticity of the incident. Almost with regret we shall have to tell him that those fish were never higher above the earth than Bob Manning's elbow." "The expert and author who has written us on the subject is Mr. Charles Fort, 39 (A) Marchmont St., W.C., London, Eng. He tells us that he has records of over two hundred instances where living things have fallen from the sky. He quotes Judge C. B. Montgomery, Oneco, Conn., as authority for the statement that on July 31, 1921, a deluge of little frogs fell over an area of several square miles near his home. The New Orleans Picayune on February 4, 1892, told of a fall of millions of large larvae of unknown species at Clifton, Ind. In several cases, our correspondent says, species unknown on this earth have fallen from the sky. Reverting to the case at Dundas, Ont., and not knowing about Bob Manning's bait pail, the English author goes on to say in his letter:" "'It may be that all bodies of water in Canada on Feb. 27th were not all frozen solid, but certainly supplies of minnows were not very available. This is the point on which I am seeking information.... It seems incredible that the minnows of Dundas had origin anywhere in Canada, or could have been carried from some far southern point, without scattering. To most minds it will seem incredible that the creatures dropped to the earth from a body of water somewhere in space beyond this earth, because interplanetary space is supposed to be intensely, if not absolutely, cold. I have many data that indicated otherwise.'" "What Mr. Charles Fort is driving at is this: If the Dundas minnows, the Connecticut frogs and the Indiana larvae fell from the sky and came from another world than this, then accepted ideas about space are wrong and it might be possible to fly from this planet to another. The Dundas minnows are accounted for. They were carried in a pail to the place where they were found. As for the Connecticut frogs, they, no doubt, came forth after a downpour of rain as frogs and angle-worms so often do. The Indiana larvae could doubtless have been competently explained if rightly enquired about at the time, and they are no such marvel as the Dundas minnows would have been if a simple explanation had not been given as to how they happened to be where they were found."]

Danville Bee, (Virginia), July 24, 1926, p. 1; at Newspaperarchives.com. "The rainfall of frogs which took place several weeks ago in North Danville has created some interest in England where the phenomenon has also been reported. The following communication was received by this paper today from Charles Fort of London who sheds further light on the subject.


LONDON, July 11, 1926.

To the Editor of the Bee,

Sir: According to the newspaper clippings that I have received, there was an occurrence that was viewed with considerable astonishment, at Danville, upon the 23rd of June. It is said that multitudes of little frogs fell from the sky. But to me the most astonishing circumstance is that such a fall from the sky should cause astonishment. I have been interested in the subject about ten year, and I have collection 26 records of similar arrivals from the sky.

There are probably hundreds of records that I have not unearthed. The phenomenon must be common, and should be anything but astonishing.

But then I read something else with which I am very familiar. “An appeal to the weather man, as to similar phenomena actually recorded brought word that there had been several reports, but that none had been proven.”

“Note the word “several.” If anybody should like to read of an instance that was investigated by the British Association for the Advancement of Science, he will find it recorded in the report of the association, for the year 1859, page 158. The investigators accepted what they considered proof of a fall from the sky of thousands of living fishes. Nevertheless conventional scientists have minimized or have disregarded such occurrences and people in general either never have heard of anything of the kind, or have heard vague stories, which they regard as incredible.

According to “Notes and Queries,” 8-6-104, lizards fell from the sky, into the streets of Montreal Canada, Dec. 28. 1857. In the “Scientific American,” July 12, 173, is an account of millions of little frogs, “which darkened the sky and covered the ground for a long distance” at Kansas City, Mo. I have about thirty records of large, unknown larvae that have fallen from the sky, in enormous numbers, sometimes attracting hosts of birds, covering square miles of ground. Flammarion, in “The Atmosphere” tells of one of these arrivals of unknown origin. In the “Australian Museum Magazine,” April 1925, A.R. McCulloch, a member of the staff of the museum, publishes a list of occurrences in Australia. He especially mentions a shower of shrimps. I have two records of showers of shrimps, in England.

Of course there have been such occurrences, and many of them, though most of them date too far back to be investigated now. But here, only a few weeks ago, we have the shower at Danville. I ask readers who know of this shower of little frogs to send information to me, at my present address, 39 (A) Marchmont W.C. London, England.

Here we have an opportunity to collect testimony that will be important. It may lead to new astonishments. Where are these things coming from, so often, and in such multitudes? If they have not origin upon this earth—and not one of these invasions has ever been traced to a terrestrial origin—there is stimulation to most revolutionary speculations upon conditions in regions beyond his earth.

I note, in the clipping, somebody’s theory, in terms of evaporation. But frog spawn could not be raised to the clouds by evaporation. Even salt, in the sea, is left behind when vapors rise.
