IC 406 is a line of three stars with a fourth just to the east of the northern most in the line. Spitaler's position, re-reduced from the modern position for his comparison star, is spot-on. He verified it on a second night, and suspected that it might be a small, nebulous cluster.― IC Notes by Harold Corwin
