A pair of small stars, the larger 9 m. near and south follow- 
ing a bright star. 
Pee3610°7 D=e2"'30 
No, 447=Vulpeculae 129. 
This is a a bright star, about 6 m. with a difficult companion 
in the direction of 340°. Distance not noted, but probably 
under 5”. No opportunity was afforded to measure or examine 
it a second time. 
No, 448=L 41874 
R. A.=21" 24™ 35° 
Decl.= + 44° 24’ 
There is some uncertainty about the place of this pair. It is 
assumed to be the above 7 m. star in Lalande, which | is near] 
in the observed ie but may be a larger star south following.

The three larger stars, A, C and EK, were discovered by Sir 
William Herschel (= # ITI. 110), and also entered in the Pul- 
kowa catalogue (=O2 447). The new members of the system, 
B and D, are very minute, and aight be easily overlooked 
with even a large aperture. My measures of these, and Dem- 
bowski’s of © and E are as follow 
A and B Patti D=6' “78 (1876°8) 
A and C 170°5 13°71 (1866°6) 
A and D 248°2 17-94 1876°8) 
A and E 45°7 29°13 totem 
Dembowski gives the magnitudes of A, C and E as 7:0, 108 
and 7‘7 respectively. A comparison of the measures of these
