The 18.inch shows a faint star about 12 from C in the direction of 3050. The principal star (B.A.C. 2470 = Lalande 14551) is a naked.eye star; Argelander and Heis 6m, and placed in Monoceros. This star is variable 6.1 to 6.8 in about 14 days; discovered by Espin in 1883 (Mon. Not. xlin, 432) (Observatory xi, 192). (3 (v1)...0 (2062,3141)...0''...0 (Am. Jour. Sei. April 1875)...0 (Pub. L.

The change in the position of the faint star, B, is due to this movement of A. With this proper motion and the measures of 1892, the minimum distance of 7s. o will occur about 1945. It will then be a very difficult object, and beyond the reach of most telescopes. It is not easily seen now with any aperture. The change in the distant stars, C, E, and F, corresponds to the proper motion of A. P (x)...0,...).../3 (2930,3141)...0 (Pub. Z.O. 11)... Aitken...
