1877, Dec. 27. Fades away very gradually, seems quite flat on sf side; the dull 
Nucl. is much nearer the np side. Dark bay seen but no st seen involved. 
Is, perhaps, a right-handed spiral. (VIIT. obs.)

IT. 602 1854, Dec. 18. Suspect the supposed smaller neb close sp to be only a F §. 
eis f seers 1855, Dec. 8. Lord R. thought the comp" on sp edge to be merely a neb with 
; a * for centre. There is a knot north about 2' dist., and another about 2’ f 
and a little south of h 271. (III. obs.)

of 10:5 and 12 mag. respectively. The neb is E in the direction 
joining the 2 st, the diameters of neb in the proportion 3 to 5. Lord 
Rosse suspected resolvability. 
1873, Sept. 21. pB,cL,m E, gbM, between 2 st, the n one of 10m, the s 
one of 16 m. Pos. of E of neb is 31°8, Pos. of stars 156°-5 [this must be a 
misreading for 176°:5, see the following observation], Dist. 111"-0. The 
centre of the nebula is slightly f the line joining the stars.
