Dr. Rorrnson—On Places of One Thousand Stars. 103 
given in Baily’s Lalande; from these the star constants were computed by tables 
(almost identical with those recently published by Mr. Stone) which I constructed 
more than forty years ago. 
The reduced observations were brought to 1870 by the precessions and secular 
variations of the British Association’s catalogue. 
The present catalogue gives the number of the star in the Lalande catalogue; its 
magnitude as given in that catalogue, except where it was manifestly erroneous; 
the number of observations; their mean epoch; the AR for 1870; the precession and 
secular variation for the same date; and in some cases the proper motion. Next, 
the same for Polar distance; and lastly, reference to other observers who have noticed 
the star. The observations and reductions were all made by my assistant, the Rev. 
Charles Faris.
