Abstract
Hurley in [5] gave an alternative definition of the chain recurrent set of a flow in terms of finite sequences of orbit segments, and extended Conley's characterization to flows on any metric space. Also, he obtained two characterizations of the chain recurrent set of a flow. But there are some defect in his proofs. In this paper we carry out improvement on the proofs in [5].
