According to the firft of thefe Obfervations* the 
Central Point muft have been very near the Meridian, 
and about 15** South of the Zenith of the Place where 
I was j which is a few Minutes directly North from 
London. The three laft agree pretty well with one an- 
other, to carry it between z and 3 Degrees further 
Southward, and to give it a perpendicular Diftance of 
3 or 4 Degrees of a great Circle from the Meridian 
Eaftward. 
In the remarkable Appearance of this kind which 
happen’d the ^th of March 171^, I obferv’d the like 
Center at near half an hour after 7 0* clock, to be 
fomething nearer the Zenith, than the bright Star in 
the Northern Head of the 7 wins and to be more 
Eaderly by about half the Diflance between that and 
the Star in Folluxs Head. By comparing this Obfer- 
vation with the Situation of the Star at that time, the 
Center appears to have been about i6 or 17 Degrees 
from the Zenith, and about x or 3 diftant from the 
Meridian Circle towards the Eaft,
