1874, Feb. 18. (3 ft. Herschelian). Lord Rosse 
made a drawing. * f was thought to be 
double, the comp". being to the north. Sky 
very clear, [See Pl. II.] 
1875, Jan. 4. Lord Rosse sketched the central 
part, sky bright. 
1878, Jan. 25. Sketched the neb between the J}. 
stars e, f, h, q, i, About 30’ n and 40'f 
¢ Orionis is a very red * 8 mag., I never saw 
a star more red. [Must be BD-1° No. 
1012}. 
1878, Jan. 27, (3 ft.) Sketched. (XIII. obs.) 
1877, Jan. 13. v F, p S, i R, at times I thought it wasa v S Cl, but it is 
doubtful. *9:10m. Pos. 0°:5, Dist. 404"-0. (I. obs.) 
1877, Jan. 12. eF,pL,R,*10m. Pos. 317°-2, Dist. 256'-4. (I. obs.) 
1850, Oct. 10, Between the 2 B st is a darker space not drawn by h. 
1851, Dec. 29. n edge the best defined, query spiral as in fig. F 
neby. seen in the dark space a. pon 
1852, Feb. 9. Spiral arrangement sufficiently seen to confirm a 
former observations. 
1856, Jan. 9. Appears in finder eyepiece a B oval neb. with n and nf edges 
brightest and best defined, and sp edge fading away gradually ; with higher 
power there is seen a decided darkness at and between the stars. I can 
confirm previous obs’. as to the curve formed by the brightest part of neb. 
1856, Dec. 26. Neby. easily traced as in sketch from 1851, the space bet. the 
B arms is filled with F neby. 
1858, Jan. 13. Seen as represented in sketch. [See Pl. I.] 
1877, Jan. 12. I don’t think the sketch from Dec. 1851 is very like the object ; 
the one from 1858 agrees better with what I saw. (IX. obs.) 
1295 369— | 1872, Sept. 29. (3 ft). Wonderful loops and curved lines of stars (as also 
M. 37 remarked by d’A.). (I. obs.) 
1267, 
1308 370—= | 1857, Jan. 21. F,S,R,bM,r? LI suspect a * in centre. (I. obs.) 
1850, Nov. 30. Same appearance as ¢ Orionis, but v m fainter. 
1851, Feb. 28. Very bad sky, nothing decisive.
