Two came from the town of Norfolk, one being from Warren O.. Corbally showing expenses amounting to $33 50, and the other from Matthew O'Brien, stating that he spent $30.8S.
 While the statements were received after the date limit fixed by law had ex- pired. the dates on which the papers were made out and sworn to, as appears on them, made it evident that candidates did not intended to violate the corrupt practices law. The date written in Messrs. Corbally and O'Brien's state ments, as that on which they were sworn to, is November 15.
