Source: SMH 24 June 1891, p.8 Col.2, reported as an informal declaration of the poll with 'the candidates being desirous of leaving to-night'.
Corrections: Hughes and Graham (1975) use an earlier set of figures reported SMH 23 June, p.5 col.8. Both Haynes and Jones are listed as an Independent Free Traders in line with the Daily Telegraph election summary, 4 July 1891, p.9 col.1. The Telegraph lists them as Free Traders, but also lists them along with Reid and Want as Independents in the listing of Ministerialist, Opposition and Labor members.
