Observations of Nebule and Clusters of Stars. 57 
1856, Jan. 9. Loose Cl, irr. R. 
1857, Jan. 21. Neat but P Cl, irr R with streamers, stars all well separated. 
1866, Dec. 7. A very pretty & compact Cl of about 50 st. (1V. st.) 
1866, Dec. 7. A dozen st scattered loosely over the field. (1. obs.) 
1867, Jan. 28. I certainly suspected that some parts of the field were irregularly 
brighter than others. There are a great number of stars in it. 
1873, Jan. 3. Not seen, sky rather hazy. [d’Arrest could not see it on Jan. 
30, 1865, though the air was very clear, but saw a trace of it on Feb. 28, 
1862, through thin haze]. 
1874, Jan. 12. Neby. is so complicated in form that it would be useless attempting 
to give an idea of it without a chart of the stars. No resemblance to h’s 
figure in the Cape observations could be detected. 
1874, Feb. 18. Viewed in the 3 ft. Herschelian telescope. 
Seen as a loop by Lord R. 
[Deferred for further examination]. 
1874, March 9. Diffused neby. p, Pos. 265°-9, Dist. 71'°4. Neb. * or neb. 
knot Pos. 318°:0, Dist. 77-6. The object has a curved tail, Pos. 30°-9, 
convex on f side, traced 9’ or 10’. The neb. knot p is connected with the 
principal nebulosity. Line of st spp, curved towards p side, nebulous? At 
least the neb. appears to extend so far on spp side. [See Pl. [.]

3 § 351-0 396°6 (I. obs.) 
1856, Jan. 30. About 25 or 30 st, curious shape like two triangles sp & nf 
with their bases in nnp and ssf direction. The p B * p does not look red as 
described by h. [* =Schjellerup 92, not examined by Birmingham, spectrum 
according to Secchi uniform, 2nd class ?] 
1848, Dec. 19. B * between, tails and curved filaments, perhaps annulus round 
the two neb. 
1848, Dec. 22. Sketched by Lord Rosse [see P. T. 1850, Pl. XX XVIL., fig. 6]. 
1849, Feb. 11. Lower patch may perhaps be joined to right hand Nucl. ? 
1851, Feb. 1. Two st.in p appendage. 
1851, Nov. 23. S * in f end of np appendage, also one about 40" nf the neb. 
1852, Feb. 12. 8S * in f part of nf appendage. 
1855, Jan. 18. Appendages easily seen. F * outside (?) f part of n appendage. 
Another F * nf the nebulae. 
1856, Jan. 29. All the details tolerably well seen. *near n end of p app. 
This latter is not parallel to the neb., but inclined to it at s end. 
1861, Dec. 26. The B appendages seen well, the intervening space seems filled 
with F neby., but I am not certain where the arms join the neb. * between 
the Nuclei seen steadily. 
1862, Jan. 25. Sketched [exactly as in Nov. 1862], but the connexions between 
* the neb. and the appendages are only conjectural. 
1862, Nov. 25. The F arms are seen clearly only near the extremities, and their 
junction with the centre is doubtful. The f arm I am more certain of than 
the pone. [See Pl. IT.] 
1867, Jan. 10. Shown to Prof. Briinnow. Resembles the pair G. C. 385 & 386, 
but in this case the bent arm is not so long though perhaps brighter. 
Character of the object bet. the neb. uncertain, sometimes thought it to be a * 
and sometimes a knot. Pos. of neb. 54°-9 (3), Dist. 28-6 (3). [In perfect 
accordance with d’Arrest and Schultz].
