11°:9, 35'-1 distant, this must be 8 of Oct. 11, 1850, when 
it was recorded as a nebula. [Sir J. Herschel records 
three observations of this companion object, all taken in 
Nov. 1827. Nov. 11 “has * 13m np;” Nov. 16 “has a 
* near it ;’ and lastly, Nov. 22 “has a S * or stellar neb. 
to then.” d’Arrest estimated the companion twice as a 
15 m * and once as a 16 m *, giving the distance as 20" and 25" to the north. | 
Another neb., G. GC. 447, Pos. 121°-3, Dist. 204-1. h 169 has also a 103m 
* 49°-3, 459'-9; this star was measured, Pos. 250°-2, Dist. 5488 from 
Bessel-Weisse 1" No. 1156 [consequently the place of the nebula for 186-0 is 
AR =15 48™ 34°-9, A=57° 38' 54-8]. The neb. sf is =447, itis F, L, cH
