The Dark Day of May 19, 1780

The night succeeding that day (May 19, 1780) was of such pitchy darkness that in some instances horses could not be compelled to leave the stables when wanted for service. About midnight the clouds were dispersed, and the moon and stars appeared with unimpaired brilliancy.—Stone’s History of Beverly.
