Scientific paper

The existence of a significant clustering of faint objects around three galaxies in the Fornax I cluster of galaxies is reported. It is believed that at least some of these objects are unresolved globular clusters. This conclusion is based on the examination of a single, direct photographic plate taken on the night of Jan. 18, 1975. In the course of assigning morphological types to the brightest galaxies on the photograph, a noticeable increase in the number of faint objects was found in the vicinity of the galaxies NGC1374, NGC1379, and NGC1399.
