Corwin's Notes

===== NGC 2674. Though Ormond Stone had doubts about this object, his RA is just one minute of time off, and his declination is good. Aside from his note, "neb?" his estimated magnitude (16.0) and diameter (0.4 arcmin) are appropriate for the object.

Steve's Notes

===== NGC 2674 24" (1/25/14): very faint, small, slightly elongated, 15"x12", weak concentration. A number of mag 12-13 stars are in the field including a mag 12.5 star 1.3' NW.
