1783.09 ; Position 36° 57' sp; Dist. 59". 9 8; H. Cat. of 1785. 
Another measure however taken not many days before, 
gave the distance 1' 7". 77.

This star, without presenting any peculiar difficulties, has 
presented greater discordances in its measures of distance 
than any yet taken. When the means differ so widely, it is 
needless to set down single measures, but the results of nu- 
merous sets of measures are as follows -
