420 DK. HEKSCHELS FIFTH CATALOGUE OF. THE 



NOTES. 



r N.B. A long dash between two notes or remarks under the same number indicates 



that they are disconnected, and occur at an interval of time of days or months 

 even } n the course of the " reviews." The only connecting link is the number 

 of the star to which they refer. J. H.] 



Notes to Camelopardalus. 



8 Is not in the place where it is marked in Atlas : the RA should be + to make it 

 agree with a star that is thereabout, or to make it agree with another. Either of 



them will be 7 -, 8. The star following 7 and 8, observed by FLAMSTEED, p. 286, 



is in its place, but is much less than 6m. I should call it 8m. 



9 Has no time in FLAMSTEED'S observation. It seems to be placed in Atlas 

 considerably too late, so as perhaps to require a correction 10' in time. 



13 Does not exist. 13 does not exist. My double star VI, 35, is 9 Aurigee. 



17 The time in FLAMSTEED'S observation is marked " circiter," but I find that my 

 viewing instrument cannot, for want of other near stars, determine whether it is 

 properly placed in the Atlas and catalogue. 



27 Does not exist. FLAMSTEED never observed it. 27 28 There is an obser- 

 vation by FLAMSTEED, p. 286, on a star S. of 28, but it does not exist, nor 27. 

 27 is wanting. A star observed by FLAMSTEED, p. 286, is not in the place where it 

 should be. 27 was never observed by FLAMSTEED. 



32 Is the same with 30 Aurigse. The stars 32 33 34, as I have called them, 



Oct. 30, are small stars nearly in a line, but I doubt whether my 32 is FLAMSTEED'S 

 star. The Atlas does not give it as it is in the heavens. The star taken for 32 

 Cam. is a small star between 33 and 30 Aurigae, not given in any catalogue. 



35 Has no time, but seems to be very properly placed in Atlas and catalogue. 



39 My instrument will not determine its place. It is without time in FLAMSTEED'S 

 observation. 



42 A star observed by FLAMSTEED, p. 288, who calls it 4m, preceding 42 and 43 is 

 in its place. 



45 and 46 By FLAMSTEED'S observations should have their PD reversed, but in the 

 heavens they seem to stand as they are placed in Atlas and catalogue. 



49 I cannot determine the time of 49, which FLAMSTEED'S observations have : : 



52 54 58-52-54 but I am not quite sure of 52 and 54. There are so many 

 small stars, that it is not possible without fixed instruments to ascertain them 



positively. 54 in FLAMSTEED'S observations by strias (screws) requires PD-2, 



but it is not possible to ascertain its place positively.
