The place of this star agrees precisely with that of the 98th 
of the 145 ; but in that catalogue it is called a star of the 
first class, and its position is said to be directly in the meri- 
dian, the stars being 1 \ diameter asunder. Allowing 2 " for 
the apparent diameter of a star of the 8th magnitude in the 
20-feet reflector, this distance would be 5". It is therefore 
probable that this star is subject to a sensible change, both 
in angle and distance.
