Various sets of osculating elements of P/Brooks 2, derived by Dubyago, are introduced into an N-body integration programme and run from 1686 to 1976. Attempts are made to find a system of elements which links the apparitions before and after the close approach to Jupiter in 1922. The propagation of differential perturbations, and also nongravitational effects, is examined.
