    The authors prove that if a topological group \(G\) is not locally compact and \(bG\setminus G\) is first countable for some compactifiction \(b G\) of the space \(G\), then \(\chi(G)\leq\omega_1\). They also show that this estimation of the character of \(G\) is the best possible, i.e., there exists a non-locally compact topological group \(G\) such that its remainder in some compactification is first countable and \(\chi(G)=\omega_1\).
