Notes

Re occupation he says he is doing nothing at present. The Poll Book lists him as having a barn etc in Gladstone Road. He received two amounts of £10 and £24 to pay 8 voters £3 apiece. The £10 chimes with Olds’ testimony that he paid some canvassers £4 over the normal amount of £6 which he paid to the others. In the event he paid 10 voters, 2 out of his own pocket. One name mentioned in his testimony, Mr Tate, wasn’t called to testify.
