-08 was immediately visible though it does have quite low SB. Small, 30-40" diameter, no *s associated, round growing broadly and slightly to centre with a hint of a small, slightly brighter zone at centre. --10 is to the NE by 10'.
-10 an extremely LSB wisp of gossamer in about PA 0, 2.25' x 10", though it is difficult to gauge the width of the minor axis because it is so diffuse and gossamery and ill-defined at the flanks. Grows hardly at all to centre with no evidence of zones, core or nucleus. There is a mag 15 * on axis in the N-side of the halo, 1' from centre
MCG -1-8-11 is 5' SE of -08 and is a similar-looking object to -08, perhaps a little better in SB but about the same size and has a similar appearance. Has a mag 13 * a little to the N off the halo.

The NGC eg is the brightest of this pair and it is a little elong in about PA 45 and has a mag 13.5 * superimposed almost on axis, but a fraction south. 1.75' x 20" in that PA and the star is a nuisance in gauging detail. Say it brightens broadly and slightly to centre. Reasonable though low SB. IC 1853 is 2' due S. Somewhat fainter, round, 30-40" diameter and brightens weakly to centre but has no core or nucleus.

Rather a barren field, this eg is found just a little offset from a line between two mag 14.6 *s 6-7' apart aligned NW-SE. Little to be seen here, non-descript round haze 40-50" diameter with no zones core or nucleus apparent it brightens slightly to centre. Fairly low SB.

These are both really quite faint eg's that seem worse than the magnitudes indicate. If anything the MCG eg is slightly the brighter, though they are really quite similar and sep by only about 5' E-W. Both very small, 30-odd arc-sec diameter, round and grow slightly to centre without zones. The MCG eg has a mag 13.5 * just N by about 40". Revise the MCG eg is elong slightly in PA 90. Both quite faint and very LSB.

This is a fairly faint eg but not as bad as the DSS would seem to show. Fairly barren field. Makes a long I tri with mags 13 & 14 *s to its NE. Seems to be about 40-50" diameter, round, brightening slightly to centre where there is a small, faint stellaring or spot.

Te major eg in tis group is -70 that sits a little to the E of a small tri of mag 12 *s and seems better than the DSS makes it reasonable SB, lowish, round about 1.25' diameter growing evenly and slightly at first and nr centre moderately to a small, not well defined 5-7" diameter core zone with goodish SB. -72 is to it's E by about 6'. Somewhat lower in SB, round, 40" diameter growing weakly to centre witout apparent core or nucleus.
-68 and -69 are to the N of -70 by 9'. Both these two are similar in appearance to -72. Quite small faint spots almost N-S of each other sep by only a couple of arc-mins. Round and very LSB, about 30" diameter growing weakly to centre.
NGC 1158 is SE by a field from -70 and is a tiny, 20" spot similar to the last two IC eg -68 & 69.

This is a very tiny, diffuse and fairly faint eg that looks better than the DSS depicts it. Pointed at from the north by a couple of 13th mag *s that are close by. Round, maybe 50" diameter growing weakly to centre without any zones core or nucleus. Low though not unreasonable SB.

-50 is easily the brightest of the -50 + -51 pair with the others in adjacent fields. -51 is only 2' N of -50 and they are about 8' E of a mag 8*. -50 is a small faint eg, though much the brighter, mod faint, round, 50" diameter with ill-defined edges to the halo growing slightly to centre where there is a tiny slightly brighter zone.
-51 is very tiny and much fainter. Only about 20" diameter, round spot of gossamer with no visible structure.
-57 is 15' SE of this pair and a little W of a mag 12 *. Extremely faint and tiny at x247, only A.V + concentration as a 15" diameter spot of weak gossamer with no structure.
MCG -3-8 52 is 12' NE of the pair and though better than -57 is still a very faint spot a little elong in PA 45, 30" x 20" with a weak central brightening.

-52 is about 8' Se from -48 with is slightly the brighter of the two though there isn't much in it. -52 is about 2.5' N of a ma 12.5 *. -52 is the smaller, 40" diameter, slightly higher SB than -48 growing broadly and mod to centre where there is a weak stellar nucleus. -48 is nearly 1' diameter, grows slightly to centre where there is a small 14th mag stellaring in the centre. Slight elong in PA 90 There is also a 15th mag * at the SE boundary of the halo just on the halo.

This is a very nice but very faint very elong or edge on spiral in PA 135. Very thin LSB sliver of a halo 1.5' x 5" and grows slightly to the centre but no really defined core or nucleus. Attractive but pretty faint.

This is a very small and faint eg in a pretty blank field that has little in it. 20-30" diameter, round quite to very faint and of very LSB. Grows broadly and slightly to centre without zones core or nucleus.
From the NGC/IC project:
NGC 1182 is almost certainly = NGC 1205. Both objects were found by Ormond Stone with the 26-inch refractor at Leander McCormick. As with all of the nebulae published in the first AJ paper from LM, the positions are crudely given to just a full minute of time and an arcminute. In this case, the two positions flank the actual position, with NGC 1182 being about a minute of time to the west, and NGC 1205 about two minutes east (this latter error is a common one in the Leander McCormick lists). The declination is within an arcminute in both cases. There are no sketches for either of these.
Stone's descriptions of the nebulae are almost identical (m = 15.5, Dxd =
0.7x0.3, extended 120deg; *10 PA = 240deg, dist = 2.5 arcmin and m = 14.0 Dxd = 0.7x0.3, extended 25deg; *9.5 PA = 240deg, dist = 3.0 arcmin). Only the magnitudes and position angles are different enough to attract attention. Howe suggested that the two objects were the same, and put the star 8 seconds west and 2 arcmin south of the galaxy (I measure 8.1 seconds and 1 arcmin 27 arcsec; the separation is 2.47 arcmin). I suspect that the position angle of 25 degrees is a transcription error for "125"; the difference in magnitude could be the result of different observing conditions.
There is a galaxy, NPM1G -09.0141, closer to the position for NGC 1205 and with a star at approximately the right distance and position angle. But the galaxy is considerably fainter than NGC 1182. Its position is also off in
declination as well as RA, so I think it is unlikely to be Stone's second
object, especially since he makes the eastern one brighter than the western.
