A series of photographic observations spanning the interval 1962 – 1991 have been examined in a study of Lalande 21185, suspected to be a double or multiple object. The observed value of secular acceleration corresponds to the radial velocity of this star. The perturbations in proper motion with suspected period of 8 years have not been confirmed.
