In February 1897 R.T.A. Innes was observing with the 7-inch Metz refractor of the Royal Observatory at the Cape of Good Hope. He examined the region around the star CD-35 9764 and thought he had found an "elliptical nebula surrounding two stars as if they were the foci of an eclipse, mags. 9.5 and 10. The Cordoba DM mag. of the chief stars is 9.7. In a high-power field with Lac. 6076."
