Observations made on Cygnus X-3 with the Whipple Observatory's 10-m imaging telescope between April 1983 and November 1986 were examined for the evidence of a 12.59 msec pulsar, the presence of which was reported by Chadwick et al. (1985). The data base was analyzed to find evidence of periodic emission of gamma-rays from Cygnus X-3 for periods between 12.586 and 12.596 msec for episodes of 8-min duration which cover the 4.8-h phase range from 0.55 to 0.70. During this period of time, no statistically significant pulsations were found within the period range examined.
