Using the data set from T-239 to T+963 sec from the recent telemetry downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 140919A (trigger #613160)
(Gropp, et al., GCN Circ. 16831).  The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 221.540, -32.153 deg which is
  RA(J2000)  =  14h 46m 09.5s
  Dec(J2000) = -32d 09' 11.5"
with an uncertainty of 1.5 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 14%.

The mask-weighted light curve shows a multi-peaked structure starts at ~ T-1 s and
ends at ~T+175 s. The structure includes roughly three peaks at ~T+3 s, ~T+40 s,
and ~T+90 s, respectively. T90 (15-350 keV) is 151.3 +- 25.6 sec (estimated error
including systematics).

The time-averaged spectrum from T-0.7 to T+174.6 sec is best fit by a simple
power-law model.  The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is
1.74 +- 0.12.  The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 5.9 +- 0.4 x 10^-6 erg/cm2.
The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T+38.97 sec in the 15-150 keV band
is 2.0 +- 0.5 ph/cm2/sec.  All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence
level.
