Lewis Swift discovered NGC 935 = Sw. II-22 on 18 Sep 1885 with the 16" refractor at Warner Observatory. His position is just 4 sec of RA east of PGC 9388 (part of Arp 276). He mentions the bright star close west though the description implies the galaxy precedes the star. I'm surprised that Swift missed IC 1801 at the SE end.

400/500mm - 17.5" (1/20/90): fairly faint, fairly small, elongated 2:1 NW-SE. A mag 14 star is superimposed. Located 1.2' NE of a mag 10 star. Forms a double system with IC 1801 off the southeast end. IC 1801 appeared very faint, very small, elongated SW-NE, low surface brightness.
