Abstract
COMET 1915e (TAYLOR).—There continues to be a dearth of information regarding this comet. Its actual position now differs very considerably from the only ephemeris available. Thus on January 13, 11.o p.m., an observation made at the Hill Observatory showed that the ephemeris required corrections of +4.0 min. in R.A., and —1° 15′ in declination. The comet was easily seen in spite of strong moonlight, and was bright enough to show the cross wires in the eyepiece.
