1852, Apr. 11. Espnf, *n. (III. obs.) 
330) t| Rnove | 1855, Apr. 18. Found in looking for h 1509 and at 12°48"-5-+ anda little n of 
J h1509aF Dneb. E at right angles to each other. (I. obs.) 
3311 1480— | 1873, Apr. 21. vB,vL, vsvmbMN, Nucl examined with sev powers (281, 
I. 141 412, 610) not seen double. A few e F st on the p part of neb. Hole on the 
nf side of neb seen quite black. * 10m Pos. 42°-3, Dist. 266-5. (1. obs.) 
3321 1486— | 1848, Mar. 11. Curious circular-shaped neb with a dark and Lspot on one side, 
M. 64 around which is a close Cl of well-defined little st. 
1848, Apr. 9. Symptoms of resolvability strongly marked, particularly about 
the “ black eye.” 
1851, May 4. Ei nearly pf. h’s dark space is a curved passage extending from 
p round to f side of the Nucl by the n. Well seen even in moonlight. 
1855, Apr. 6. The vacuity very dark and distinct. It appears to be of a 
slightly curved form, stretching from n of the B Nucl to nf. The whole 
neb seems a little oval pf. 
1855, Apr. 17. Neb along convex edge of dark passage rather brighter than 
elsewhere round. 
1860, Apr. 13. Hither a F * or F Nucl f the dark space. At times I suspected 
that the latter went out to the sf edge of neb ? 
1861, Mar. 17. I think there are st sparkling near the nf border of the hole, 
and one nearly opposite the Nucl. (XVII. obs.) 
3330 1491= | 1878, Apr. 4. pB, pL, IbM, broadest in the middle, m E 77°:5, 
IT. 536 seems sharper on n side. allm, 6 and y 12m. le a 
af Pos. 226°-2 Dist. 289'-7 
ay 191-4 169°3 (I. obs.) 3330 ee 
3340 1499— | 1855, Apr. 17. v F,m E sp nf, has a plain * inn extremity and either a * or 
IV. 30 what looks more like a B little knot inv in s end. 
1858, Apr. 10. A v F streak of neby bet 2 st nearly ina linens. Then * isa 
little the brighter, and is more sharply defined than the other. The neb 
swells out or projects towards p side. 
1861, May 4. More easily seen bet Nucl and * inn end than near other end. 
(LIT. obs.) 
3342 1498= | 1855, Feb. 16. L Bray, Nucl v B and oval; there is a * inv inn edge of neb 
T. 162 alittle p the Nucl. 
1861, Apr. 3. Iam not sure whether the * is inv or not. : 
1872, Mar. 8. e E 88°-6 (3), 3’ or 4' 1, gbM to a roundish, soft Nucl. * in Pos. 
286°°6 (3). 
1876, Apr. 16. Badly seen. B, pL,m E 89°, sbM. * 13:14m inv. p the 
centre, Dist. 48’-5. (VI. obs.) 
3343 1500 1850, Mar. 9. Met 9 nebulz sweeping p the * to about 15™ and 6 or 7’ others 
NPD 63°15'+ and about 15™ p last. (I. obs.) 
3356 1509= | 1855, Apr. 18. Looks sometimes like the owl neb [h 838] when 
I. 143 badly seen, with a B, E patch in centre and dark spots on each 
side of this ; sometimes dark ring is seen all the way round, 
but blackest to right and left [sp and nf]. Neby round is 
mottled. 
1856, Mar. 29. Last year’s observation correct, * in sf edge. 
1857, Apr. 24. Long and carefully examined. The B centre is E in the direction 
of the * on edge and on either side of centre there certainly exist dark spaces 
as before remarked, giving it the look of the owlneb. Yet I sometimes 
thought I saw it as a spiral with a break in outer annulus npp.
