was

Alderman

last

compli
mented
the

"They

"The

by
129
votes
on

Consideration
was
being
given
at

to
the
question
of
finding

Ton
Mr
King.
It
is
expected
a
seat
will
be;
opened

him.
The
result
of
the
service

left
the
Liberal
total
unchanged
with-
two
gains
and
two
losses;
Progressive
Conservatives
with
a
net
loss
of
one
seat,

a

of
one
addl-tlonal

column.
Two
Liberal
gains
through
the

came
in
Colchester-Hants,

whole
the

was
not

showed
a

parties

a
stronger

for
the
C.C.F.
al
