Notes: Henry Parkes is not shown as a sitting MP, having been defeated in East Sydney on 24 October, and elected for Canterbury on 29 November.
Source: SMH 1 November 1877, p.5 col.4, including booth results, but reported as one small return to come. Same totals in Australian Town and Country Journal, 3 November 1877, p.725. In the Sydney Mail election summary, 17 November, p.626, Clark was reported on 855 votes, but the result from other sources has been used here.
