IC 5313 = NGC 7632. Swift found this in August of 1897, just a few months before his last discovery from Echo Mountain. His position is fairly good, being just 14 seconds of time off in RA. The identity with NGC 7632 is assured by Swift's notes about the surrounding stars: "10m * nr sp, 11m * f". He has the 10th magnitude star simply as "south" in the AN list, but correctly notes it "south-preceding" in the Popular Astronomy list.
