Corwin's Notes

=====

NGC 5219 = NGC 5244.  John Herschel's original position for N5219 is quite 
uncertain, being given only to a full minute of time in RA and marked +- in 
Dec.  The description exactly matches that for NGC 5244.  Furthermore, the two
objects were seen in different sweeps.  The identity is therefore almost
certain.
