Observing Notes
Harold Corwin
There are two galaxies at Bigourdan's place, roughly the same size and magnitude. Which one did he see?
Going into his big table, we find that his description reads "Extremely faint and diffuse, but its existence is certain; I can see brighter points in it which may be stars 13.4-13.5." So, he saw both objects, even if marginally.
His position is a bit closer to the brighter, southern galaxy. But given his description, I prefer to keep both objects as the IC object.
