cast for said w. b. Van Hook insAid county as
such candidate, making. majority, according
to said official returns, Of htynine votes IN fav-

that In the township of Lemon IN said county
six hundred and thirty-two votes wore cast for
said John Mcclellan, aud one hundred and sew
ensy- y-nlne votes were cast for said W. b. Van
Hook. IL further appears from the evidence.
that during the progress Of said election In said
Lemon township, about i've O'Clock r. M, aud
before the poll.books Of ssid township were
sigued by the Judges and attested BY the clerks,
and before the names on said poll.books were

10 the ballot box, the judges Of said election
opened said ballot box and commenced counting
the ballots therein. Tf ..a|
The conteetor W.1B. Van Hook claims that
such conduct on the part Of said Judges was In
violation Of the Law governing elections, and
that all the votes cast at said election 10 said
Lemon township should be rejected, which
would give to said contestcr, W. b. Van Hook,
q msjority of three hundred and ninety-four
votes as such candidate for Representative.
Il does not appear that any votsrs were de-
priVed Of the privilege Of voting at said election
BY the action Of the said Judges, and the com
mit.oe are o. the opinion that although the 40
tiou Of ssid Judges was not in accordance with
Law, yet As no fraud 10 shown 10 have been COM
mltied, such irregularity on the part Of the
Judges Of said election should not deprive the
legal voters Of eaid township Of their votes so
cas-; at said election; therefore,
