Abstract Following the report of enhanced X-ray activity towards the direction of Terzan 1 by MAXI from May 19--30 (Atel #5096), we performed an observation with Swift/XRT on June 4th (Obs. ID: 00032852001) and found no evidence of X-ray activity in the vicinity of Terzan 1. The exposure of this observation after standard processing was 35 seconds, though the unfiltered data's exposure time is 897 seconds.
