In spite of his unpleasant experiences m connection with electoral laws of the colony, the Wellingtori •' Post^ mentions that during the polling for ; the Corporation loan he made his appearance at the polling booth, and was proceeding to record his vote when Mr Ainesj the Returning Officer, cautioned him that his doing so might again subject him to judicial proceedings. Mr Pharazyn asked, ma 1 somewhat heated tbne, if the Returning Officer meant to decline to give him a voting paper. Mr Ames replied that ho could not refuse him the paper, but ho simply cautioned him as to what might be the result. Mr Pharazyn, after some hesitatiou as to what course i he should pursue, appeared to think it was not advisable to vote, and went away without doing so.
