Position 44 0 55' sf; Distance ^'.626. Epoch 1822.93. 
In taking the mean the distances of 1821 are registered. 
The observations of this star are very unsatisfactory both in 
angle and distance. It was thought better however to give 
them with this mark of reprobation than to suppress them 
altogether, as this is one of the stars in which there can 
hardly be a doubt of a slow change in the angle of position. 
Other observations give as follows :
