Abstract

Since my report on the Dark Ring Nebula in Cygnus,¹ I have received the following communication from Dr. R. H. Curtiss, Acting Director of the Detroit Observatory of the University of Michigan: "Your article in the February Popular Astronomy on a dark ring nebula in Cygnus has led me to look up an excellent slide which we have of that region made from a photograph secured with the 6-inch Willard Lens on October 5, 1893, at Lick Observatory. The dark elliptical ring stands out very beautifully on this slide. I think anyone would notice it but would be strongly tempted to ascribe it to a defect in one of the pieces of glass through which light must pass in making the lantern slide copy.”
