Observing Notes
Harold Corwin
IC 4274 = NGC 5189. Found by Williamina Fleming on a Harvard objective prism plate, this was put into the second IC with the north polar distance of 115 degrees rather than the correct 155 degrees (the Harvard Annals, Volume 60, lists the declination as -65 degrees). Unfortunately, this simple typo has been carried over into NGC 2000.0 as a 40 degree error in the declination of I4274. N5189's position there is correct, however.
