With 227, above 2i or nenr 3 diameters of L, nnd 5 other 

 stars in view; with "460, above 3 diam. of L. Pos. 89°-2 

 n. foil." 



Anon. R, A. 1 13° 59'.) From Lai. H. C. 53. Double. Hers. 

 V, 67. " Near 1° n. foil. /3 Gem. nearly in a line from 

 8 continued ; the furdiest and smallest of three. Consi- 

 derably unequal. L. r. S. dr. Distance 47"'6." 



B. 201 Geminorum.) From Lalande. Double. Hers. II. 

 64. " About ^° s. foil. 81 g Gem. nearly in a line from 

 ^ continued ; the nearest and largest of two. Very un- 

 equal. L. r ; S. blueish r. With 227, above 3 diameters 

 ofL. Position 4°* 15 n. preceding." 



84 Geminorum.) Is of the 7th mag. only. — Bode. Although 

 marked 5 m. in the Brit. Cat., it has no magnitude in 

 Fl. observations. 



P. VII. 261, or 5. 2 Cancri.) Is the same as C. H. 140. 



2 CO. 1 Cancri.) Double. The small star 3" north, very faint. 



— Piazzi. 



3 Cancri.) Astronomers have been mucli puzzled to account 



for the erroneous declination given to this star in Brad- 

 ley's Catalogue (Naut. Aim. 1773). An inspection how- 

 ever of Bessel's Cat. clearly shows that although Bradley's 

 R. A. is correct, his Decl. belongs to a star about 56' 

 north, which is P. VII. 273. This latter star had not 

 appeared in any earlier catalogue. 



4 w. 2 Cancri.) " Has a very obscure star in view. L. pr. 



Distance about 1^^ minute. Pos. about 30° n. prec. A 

 third about 2'. Pos. more north." Hers. VI. 75. 



11 Cancri.) Double. Hers. I. 11. " Considerably unequal. 

 Both pale r. With 227, 1 full diam. of L. with 460, 

 about If diam. Pos. 85°'17 n. prec." 



14 v^. 2 Cancri.) Pr. mot. R. A. — 0"-05. Dech — 0"-36. 



Anon. R. A. 119° 56'.) From LaL /f. C. 52, 279. Is 13 

 Cancri of Fl. Cat. edit. 1712, although omitted in the 

 standard edit, of 1725. See C.H.\6l. 



16 ? Cancri.) Double. Pi. foil, star VIII. 6. mag. 7-8. R. A. 

 -t-2"-4. Decl. 4-6''-0. Hers. I. 24, and III. 19. "A 

 most minute treble star. It will at first sight appear 

 double only, but with proper attention, and under favour- 

 able circumstances, the preceding of them will be found 

 to consist of 2 stars, which are considerably unequal." 

 The single star is of intermediate magnitude between the 

 other two, which latter " are both pale r. or r. With 

 278, but just separated, with 460, distance ^ diam. of S. 

 Pos. 86°'53 n. following." The single star " pale r. Di- 

 stance 8"-046 mean measure. Pos. 88°-27 s. prec."
