TorneĆ„, 06/08/1732, ¶945:
6th. The holy Sabbath day is used for the recreation of the body and of the spirit. In the church I read King Charles XI’s own observations of the sun on the 14th June 1694. The sun was seen until towards 12 o’clock midnight, when a small patch of cloud covered it though it still remained above the horizon. In winter, however, the sun does not go completely below the horizon and is still visible at the solstice. I wonder if it is visible at the pole?
