Observing Notes
Harold Corwin
IC 2504 is probably another Harvard plate defect. There is no trace of any nebula in the area matching Stewart's description: "eF, vS, eE at 170 deg, lbM, susp." The "susp[ected]" means that Stewart found it on only one plate, in this case Plate 5049, a three-hour exposure taken in March of 1901. Stewart's table with the plate data claims that only one "nebula" was found on the plate. This is probably it.
