On February 18th 1908 Mr Evershed at the Solar
Physics Observatory, Kodaikanal, South India using a 6 inch Thomas Cooke &

photographs of a solar prominence. The remarkable appearance of this kind of
prominence has seldom been recorded. 20
photographs were taken with 14 being reproduced here.
Visual observations were also made which indicated a moderately bright mass of prominences
