Polaris S. P. 
After the star’s passage over the middle wire, a warm 
blanket was applied to the upper eastern and lower western 
brace: light intervening clouds prevented the observation of 
the star’s passage over the 5th wire, and rendered uncertain 
(not more, however, than to the extent of 4 seconds) that at 
the 6th wire.
