Default nested Cell("contents", w/ cell contents reference)

Try using the INDIRECT function:

=INDIRECT("'Other Sheet'!"&B1)

I'm trying to reference the cell contents of a cell in a different worksheet
by using the cell reference contained in a cell of the current sheet

i.e. ThisWorksheet cell B1 evaluates to a value "F159"

=CELL("contents",'Other Sheet'!F159) is what I'm after

somehow I want to get that using the ThisWorksheet B1 reference?

=CELL("contents",'Other Sheet'! & cell("contents",b1))?????

how do I construct or concatenate the appropriate references to meet my needs?
