Corwin's Notes
=====
NGC 7825. The NGC positions for this and NGC 7827 are quite good, having come
from John Herschel (via the GC) and from d'Arrest. This hasn't kept MCG from
mangling the identifications for the galaxies. UGC sorted out N7827, but
still got the wrong galaxy for N7825. This led PGC -- and thus RC3 -- to
adopt the incorrect identification. CGCG got everything right, but PGC
ignored it (and has further made a hash of the CGCG numbers, positions, and
magnitudes in the area). In any event, delete the NGC number from PGC 377 in
RC3.
Steve's Notes
=====
NGC 7825
17.5" (9/15/90): very faint, very small, round, bright core. A mag 14.5 star is 1.1' NE. Forms a trio with NGC 7827 5.3' E and UGC 37 7' ESE. Incorrectly identified in RC3 and UGC but correct in RNGC.
