Observing Notes
Harold Corwin
IC 1943 may be NGC 1411. Swift's position is about 9 minutes of time too small, but his declination and description fit the NGC galaxy pretty well. I personally suspect that he made a 10 minute digit error in reading his setting circle; combined that with his usual approximate RA, we could well end up with his position. By the time he was observing at Echo Mountain, his ability to measure positions had become quite bad. This is an obvious example.
