In this note we report the detection and mapping of neutral hydrogen in two dwarf elliptical galaxies NGC 185 and NGC 205. Both are companions to M 31 and both are classified as peculiar owing to the presence of obscurring dust patches near their nuclei. Both galaxies also contain a small population of blue, presumably young stars (Hodge 1963, 1973).
