Was something written on them?

According to Kirkwood, Meteoric Astronomy, a substance like charred paper fell in Norway and other parts of northern Europe on Jan. 31, 1686. In the Annals of Philosophy, 16-68, the substance was described as “a mass of black leaves, having the appearance of burnt paper, but harder, and cohering, and brittle.”
