372 Notes to Catalozue of zodiacal Stars. 
Anon. R.A. 44° 38’.) Hist. Céleste, p. 200. The R.A. obs. by 
Bradley. 
B. 157 Arietis.) This is probably Herschel’s double star V.117. 
s¢ About 13° n. preceding ¢ Arietis, towards 41; the fol- 
lowing of 4 forming an arch. Very unequal. Both dr. 
Distance 34”°8. Pos. 47°:55 n. preceding. 
57 6 Arietis.) Pr. mot. in R.A. +0720. 
P. 111.4, or B.3 Tauri.) The Rt. Ascension in Bode’s Catalogue 
is —4’ from Messier. 
Anon. R.A. 47° 14'.) This is supposed to be Herschel’s double 
star II. 76. Wollaston suggests that c. 75 may be the star 
meant, but that is only half a degree from the determining 
star. Pos. from Hist. Céleste, p.33. ‘‘ About 1° s. pre- 
ceding 63 Arietis, towards ~ Ceti; the most south of two 
small telescopic stars. Nearly equal. Both w. With 227, 
above 3 diameters; by the micrometer 5’°S. Pos. 15°°4 
s. preceding.” 
63 7. 2 Arietis.) Near this a double star. Hers. IV. 89. 
*« The vertex of an isosceles triangle following + Arietis ; 
a very small star. Very unequal. L.r; S.d. Distance 
with 278, 20"°05. Pos. 62°:0 s. following.” It is to be 
observed, that Herschel mentions only one r Arietis, whereas 
61 and 68 are both marked with that letter in the Brit, Cat. 
The uncertainty may be removed by referring to Sir Wil- 
liam’s description of his double star I]. 76; where he di- 
stinctly assigns the letter in question to 63 only. Probably 
Piazzi’s star 46, whose R.A. is +8’ 84, and Decl. +13’ 
503, may be one of the stars of the isosceles triangle 
above mentioned. The proper motion of 63 Arietis in 
R.A. is —0"18, 
Anon. R.A. 48° 11’.) Lalande Hist. Céleste, 139,201. This 
may perhaps be Herschel’s star III. 91, although the di- 
stance from the determining star is rather greater than stated 
by him. “ Double. Near 1° n. foll. 62 Arietis, towards 
s Persei. Nearly equal. Both d.w. Distance 11’*3, not 
very accurate. Position 12°-4 n. prec. or s. following.” 
1 0 Tauri.) Double, according to Piazzi. 
Anon. R.A. 49° 6.) 'This is probably one of the two stars men- 
tioned by Herschel, Ill. 77. ‘* Double. About 2° south 
following 65 Arietis, in a line parallel to the Pleiades, and 
= ‘Tauri; the preceding of two. Very unequal. L.r.; 
S. blueish. Distance 8°53. Position 73°°3 s. following.” 
There is only one star noticed by Lalande Hist. Cél. p.33. 
4s Tauri.) A star of the 7th mag. precedes this 1" 30°. Decl. 
+2’. Also a double star, Hers. IV. 44. ‘A small tele- 
scopic star south following s Tauri. Extremely unequal. 
Liew. Sd.” 7 Tauri.)
