Let X be a continuum. In Proposition 31 of J.J. Charatonik and W.J. Charatonik, Smoothness and the property of Kelley, Comment. Math. Univ. Carolin. 41 (2000), no. 1, 123–132, it is claimed that L ( X ) = p X S ( p ) , where L ( X ) is the set of points at which X is locally connected and, for p X , a S ( p ) if and only if X is smooth at p with respect to a . In this paper we show that such equality is incorrect and that the correct equality is P ( X ) = p X S ( p ) , where P ( X ) is the set of points at which X is connected im kleinen. We also use the correct equality to obtain some results concerning the property of Kelley.
