What
happened on Leap Year Day?
|
|
45
BC
|
Emperor Julius Caesar
proclaims the last day of February as Leap Year Day,
skipping it three out of four years. Back then, February 30th was
the last day of the last month of the year, which is why he picked
it.
|
|
4
AD
|
Emperor Caesar
Augustus corrects a counting error in Leap Years. He also gets the
month of August named after him, and steals the last day of
February so that August can have 31 days, just like Julius' month.
Now February has 29 days in Leap Years.
|
|
1582
|
Pope Gregory XIII
moves the end of the year to December 31st and makes century years
Leap Years if they are divisible by 400. (So 2000 is a Leap Year,
but 1900 was not.) He moved the end of the year back two months so
that Easter would occur in the spring.
|
|
1692
|
The Salem Witch Trials begin on this
Leap Day when Tituba, the female Indian servant of the Rev. Samuel
Parris, and one Sarah Goode were both arrested and accused of
witchcraft.
|
|
1964
|
William S. James, who designed cars
for Hupmobile, Studebaker and Ford, and who served as vice
president for research and engineering with the Fram Corporation,
dies on this day at age 71.
