Observations of Nebule and Clusters of Stars. 89 
1878, Mar. 24. 4™-0 p and 6’+ n of 2238. v F,5S, irr R, only a 8 group of st. 
* 9m Pos. 192°:0, Dist. 162-9. (II. obs.) 
1855, Feb. 9. h 765 is, I think, a spiral with a left-handed twist ; immediately 
f it is 766, which is B and well defined, E pf. I suspect F neby extending 
from 765 and running up through 766. [P. T. 1861, pl. xxvu. fig. 15.] 
1855, Feb. 14. Seen as before. In 765 the curve to the left is brightest near 
its extremity, and there may be a dark line across it sf Nucl. I think again 
there is F neby connecting it with 766. 
1855, Feb. 16. Certainly F neby extends between the two, as before suspected. 
1855, Apr. 16. Have a resolvable look to-night. 
1856, Jan 10. Nothing to add to former observations. 
1856, Mar. 26. In the nf neb Mr. Stoney suspected a knot or * to the left of 
[sp] Nucl ; Lord Rosse thought this neb r. 
1857, Mar. 19. Viewed to compare sketch. 
1860, Mar. 15. The centre of the f neb is so B as to look likea*. (X. obs.) 
1854, Mar. 27. B Nucl. 
1878, April 3. p F, 8, Ep f, gmbM, mottled, looks as if a good speculum and 
a good night would resolve it, many vF points seen around and in it, one 
especially p Nucl. * 10-11m Pos. 77°°5 (2). Dist. 387'"6 (2). (II. obs.) 
1868, Mar. 17. Suspected to be triple, principal Nucl. being doubie in direction 
sp nf, B point in p edge of sp part. Neby susp from this p with a 3rd knot in 
it. 
1878, April 1. 2 neb, Pos. 121°-6, Dist. 115”:2. p one pB, pL, irr R, gmbM. 
2 points of condensation, brighter one sp centre, many points of light in it ; 
f one F, pS, diffused. No connection between them seen with any certainty. 
* 9-10m Pos. 213°:9 (2), Dist. 284"-3 (2) from pneb. (IL. obs.) 
1854, Mar. 30. Ens, another neb n of it, about 3’ dist [=2226].

2226 is about 6’ nnf, eF, eS, but isonly a *. (IT. obs.) 
1851, Mar. 6. Another neb eF, S. 2' np. 
1856, Mar. 7. vB, L, R, vB central Nucl, not resolved. 
1857, Feb. 23. B, oval ns, smbM. About 1’ np is a vv F neb? IE. 
1857, Mar. 22. irr R, dull Nucl. certainly mottled. About 14' np this there is a 
vvF patch of neby. 
1867, [date uncertain]. E 149° has a twist turning n from np end [this is evidently 
what on 3 other nights was seen as an isolated “patch”. 
1876, Mar. 17. B, pL, R, vgvmbM. *11:12m Pos 244°-1 (2), Dist 321”-1 (2).

1857, Feb. 23. F, irr figure, perhaps 1E sp nf, bM. 
1857, Mar. 23. F,1Espnf, vibM. I suspect minute stellar points in it. 
1867, [date uncertain]. E 82° (2). 
1876, Mar. 17. vF, S, 1E sppnff. * 11m Pos. 128°-7 (2), Dist. 197'-2 (2).
