Position 6 1° 44* sp (10 Obs.) ; Epoch 1824.29 ; 
Distance 30". 382 (13 Obs.); Epoch 1824.62. 
In 1783 the position is stated to have been 56 0 30' sp, and 
the distance 2 7".5o. An error of observation to the extent 
of 5 0 14' is too much to be supposed in a star of the 4th class, 
and it is therefore pretty clear that this star is liable to a 
slow change ; whether arising from orbitual motion in both, 
or rectilinear in one of the two, future observations must 
decide. (H.)
