IC 2258 is almost certainly the star that I've included in the table, perhaps with a plate defect mixed in. The agreement with Wolf's position is excellent. Still, there is always the possibility that it may be Wolfgang's double star -- Wolf includes the note "biN" (bi-nuclear) in his description, so we can't dismiss this idea.― IC Notes by Harold Corwin
