fo faint and dull, as made it doubtful, whether what 
I took for the Comet might not be a fmall Star with a 
little Hazinefs about it. But this Doubt was cleared 
two Nights after } when I perceived that the Comet was 
moved from its former Situation, towards a bright Te- 
lefcopical Star, from which 1 afterwards took its Diffe- 
rence of Right Afcenfion and Declination, upon my 
Return to Wanfied , on Dec, 7. This Star’s Right Afcen- 
fion was then found 303 0 39' 20" and its Declination 
7 0 32' 30" N. And Decemb, 7. 6 h, 45' the Comet fol- 
lowed it 3' 15" in Right Afcenfion, being 14' more 
Northerly than the Star. Hence the Comet’s Right 
Afcenflbn was 303° 42' 35" and its Declination 7^ 
46' 30" N. : . r v 
This was the lafb Night that I faw the Comet, tho* 
I belive I might have continued to have obferved it, 
had notan interrupted Succefiion of cloudy Evenings 
prevented fo long, that it became uncertain where to 
look for it. 
The forementioned Obfervations are the Principal 
of all that were made at Wa?ified } and moft of them 
being taken from Stars which are not in the Britifi 
Catalogue, whofe Places therefore are here deter- 
mined, only by comparing them with fome that were - 
it cannot be fuppofed that the Comet’s Places deduced 
from them are altogether exad. For which Reafon I 
have all along fet down, not only the Place of the 
Comet and Star where it was known, but alfo the 
Particulars of the Obfervation, that if any here- 
after (hould be willing to examine the Trad of this 
Comet more nicely, they may know where to find 
the Stars from which it was obferved. The Places of 
the Stars here fet down are abundantly fufficient for 
that Purpofe, as will appear from the following Ta- 
ble, which contains the Longitudes and Latitudes of
