Let n mass points, where n is at least 2, with arbitrary masses move circularly on a rotating straight-line central-configuration; i.e., on a particular solution of relative equilibrium of the n-body problem. By replacing one of the mass points by a close pair of mass points (with mass conservation), it is shown that the resulting N-body problem (N = n + 1) has solutions, which are periodic in a rotating coordinate system and describe precessing nearly elliptic motion of the binary and nearly circular collinear motion of its center of mass and the other bodies; it is also assumed that the mass ratio of the binary is small.
