Corwin's Notes
=====
NGC 3129 is a double star seen by both WH and JH. WH's position, adopted by
JH, is good, and both descriptions are appropriate. It appears, however, that
LdR must have seen it as a star or a double star, as he could not find any
nebulosity at WH's position on three different nights. Dreyer has a note in
NGC to that effect.
