List of Voters Objected To!
The following is a list of voters who have been registered as qualified, and
since objected to. It was posted up in the County Clerk’s office yesterday
evening, just as we were going to press; but so important a matter we could not
let slip. Obtaining the assistance of some friends to copy the list, we have
hurriedly put it in type. The Board of Appeals is advertised, in the same way,
to meet at Louisville on the 18th inst., instead of in Troy, as at first
advertised in this paper. Why this change has been made with so short notice we
know not, unless to more effectually carry out the odious, disgraceful
disfranchisement scheme.
Remember the Board of Appeals meets at Louisville, the 18th and continues in
session for six days.
Meet your accusers.
[307 names listed including:]
Simon Biddick in Bedford Township
Perry Bittick in Prairie Township
