Source: SMH 28 November 1877, p.7 col.2, similar looking figures published illegibly in the Riverine Grazier, 21 November 1877, p.2 col.1. Pastoral Times only published provisional result with small booths to come. Gap between newspaper reports and Statistical Register totals may simply be informal votes.
