was found to be more Southerly , but afterwards 
became more Northerly than that Point, as in the 
following Table ; the laft Column of which fhews 
its mean Diftance South of that Point on the 27th 
of March 172 . 7 . The Obfcrvation of the 23d Day 
of ‘ December , in the Year 1738, differs 3" from 
the mean of the others,* as does alfo another, that 
was taken five Days after this - 3 neither of which be- 
ing marked as uncertain, I judged it proper to infert 
one of them ; altho' they give the mean Place of the 
Star near 2 Seconds more Northerly than any other, 
in a Series of above 100: all of which corrcfpond, 
with the mean of thefe here recited, within iefs than 
2 // ; excepting t r cco 3 that give the Stars mean Di- 
dance almoft 3" more Southerly ; but thefe laft 
mentioned are marked as dubious,- and indeed they 
appear to have been bad, by comparing them with 
feveral others, that were made near the fame time, 
from which they differ almoft 2 ".
