Mr. SPEAKER.
I have the honour to inform the House that I have received from the Registrar of the Supreme Court of Canada, a certified copy of the judgment of the said court in the election appeal for the electoral district of Beauharnois ; by which the appeal was dismissed and the decision of the lower court, declaring the election void, was confirmed.
In conformity with chapter 9, section 46, of the Revised Statutes, I have issued my warrant to the Clerk of the Crown in Chancery to make out a new writ of election for the said electoral district.
Topic: CONTROVERTED ELECTION.
