An isotopic abundance analysis for Mg in the metal-poor subgiant v Indi is reported. A high-resolution, high signal-to-noise spectrum centered near 5131 Å in combination with synthetic spectra gives the ratios 25Mg/24Mg and 26Mg/24Mg < 3%. The 25Mg and 26Mg isotopes are obviously underabundant relative to solar system material, where 25Mg/24Mg = 13% and 26Mg/24Mg = 14%. These results confirm an earlier finding for Gmb 1830, a slightly cooler and more metal-rich dwarf. An elemental abundance analysis is presented for an interesting set of elements: Li, C, O, Mg, Si, Ca, V, Mn, Ti, Fe, Co, Ni, Y, Ba, La, Ce, and Eu. The results show that v Ind is a typical metal-poor subgiant with [Fe/H] = -1.52, and, relative to Fe, a significant overabundance of oxygen ([O/Fe] = +0.52), Mg, Si, and Ca.
