Naval Observatory. The measures were made by the regular method of double distances, four measures being made in both positions of the movable wire. The observations are in Central Standard Time, 6 hours 0 minutes slow of Greenwich Mean Time. The distance measures were made by the regular method of double distances. The observations are not corrected for refraction. The book also includes observations of comets made with the 26-inch and 12-inch equatorial. The observations are in Central Standard Time, or 6 hours 0 minutes slow of Greenwich Mean Time. The observers were C. B. Watts, H. E. Burton, and the author. The first six observations of 1912 a and those of 1912 c were made with the 12-inch equatorial; the last five of 1912 a and the one of 1912 b with the 26-inch equatorial. This book is a valuable resource for astronomers and historians of science interested in the study of Saturn's satellites and comets.
