eighty. which brought his aggregate vote within five
of that received by Mr.. Giles Mr Calkns made a
very handsome run and would in wise detract
from his popularity. Another slip Of the types not
provoking, must be corrected. Mr.. Bouchet Of the
Second District ia reported having total vote Of
l63 whereas il should hsve been lo9 the same that
received by Mr. Holiday
The death of Jack Beauchanp as be was familliariy
