H. Grattan-Bellew, Is. The final bal
lot was: Cosgrove, ISL; Finnerty, 10.
Mr.. Finnerty said the Convention had
made an excellent selection, but it's
constitution was something that more
than one of the candidates had to dis.
agree with. He complained that q

honorable standing had been disfran-

fide or representative character. At
the same time, he (Mr. Finnerty) hav.
ing pledged himself to abide by the
decision Of the convention, would
do so.
