19 December 21, 1894 [[underline]]H.P 1240 and 1228.[[/underline]] Examination of Charts to determine magn. of star known as H 1240 which seems to be identical with CDM -27° 3082 R.A. 6^[[h]] 27^[[m]] 58.8^[[s]] Dec. -27° 50.0 (1875) magn. 8.7 = A.G.C. A.G.C. 8018 magn 8½ Plates B 4513, 4548, 4626, 7184, and 10487 examined shows that the star is about 0.1 magn. fainter than CDM -27° 3085 R.A. 6^[[h]] 28^[[m]] 11.0^[[s]] Dec. -27° 54.8 magn. 9.9, and about 0.5 magn. brighter than CDM -27° 3072 R.A. 6^[[h]] 27^[[m]] 235^[[s]] Dec. -27° 55.0 magn. 9.8 and the examination gives no evidence of variation. The star measured in Vol.XIV p.411 is therefore assumed to be CDM -27° 3068 R.A. 6^[[h]] 27^[[m]] 4.5^[[s]] Dec. -27° 56.3 magn. 7.9 which equals A.G.C. 8000 magn. 8¼ The star H 1240 in Table XXVII of Vol.XIV p.150 is an additional observation of H1228.
