(نُشِر في 16 ديسمبر 1872). 12 ديسمبر 1872. p. 1 col. 3. مؤرشف من الأصل في 2017-02-12. Jno. J. Patterson, commonly known in these parts as 'Honest John,' who planted himself solidly on the platform of United States promises to pay, and boldly avowed his intention to buy his way into the Senate.
    Although the OCR version is illegible and you must read the scanned images, this is a very entertaining account of the election, featuring "Patterson then expressed strong doubts about the respectability of the maternal ancestor of the magistrate. The magistrate fled, leaving Patterson and Hurley masters of the situation. But this was not the end of the matter. The flying magistrate, after invoking the aid of the police and being reinforced by sundry members of that force, returned to the field, and after a little deliberation came to the conclusion that the court had been the subject of contempt, which so far as Hurley and Patterson were concerned was eminently true." Several paragraphs later, "But this was by no means the final act in the farce."
