Two apparitions of Comet Westphal in 1852 and 1913 have been linked on the basis of 101 observations, the mean errors being equal to ±2″55. The perturbations from nine major planets and the possible influence of nongravitational forces have been taken into account. The elements and the ephemeride for 1974 have been computed.
