Mean Result. 
Position 40° 11' np (20 Obs.) ; Distance 36".S6i (20 Obs.); 
Epoch 1825.22. 
In 1781 the position was 38° 19' np ; the distance 40". 75© 
“ pretty exact." The distance is too large to be fully relied 
on ; but the agreement of positions within 2 0 shows that the 
star has undergone no notable change. (H.)
