Observed with 327, a power just sufficient to separate distinctly the two stars 
from each other ; but it is unfortunately rather a higher power than the stars

I attempted to observe this double star with 181, but could not succeed; the 
measures were procured with 327, which is a power greater than the stars well 
bear. The stars are unsteady, and the night is hazy.
