Corwin's Notes

=====

NGC 5825 may be identical to NGC 5778.  The descriptions fit -- especially the
"pB star close following" -- and the declinations are close.  However, the
RA's are 7 min 40 sec apart, and Swift found both objects on the same night.
There are no other galaxies in the area that might be NGC 5825, though, so I'm
going to keep the possibility of the identity in the table.

See observing notes for NGC 5778.  Identification very uncertain and may be lost.
