 the early recognition of the planet practically impossible. 

 Judged by the testimony of other observations, Mr. Lan- 

 dreth's times of internal contacts appear to be affected by 

 a constant source of error in the direction which might 

 have been anticipated from his remark that the outline of 

 the planet appeared as a " protuberance " beyond the sun's
