Heaver Creek An affidavit by T. W. Fergu son alleged that 20 Republicans voted for Rousseau and that three votes were counted which he termed illegal because of res idence of the electors. Counter affidavits were Introduced, Sign ed by the registrar and an elec tion judge, affirming that no Re publicans voted and that there were no irregularities in that precinct. Boomer From Boomer township was an affidavit signed by 44 voters who said they were Democrats and who voted for Burke. Burke’s vote in Boomer as shown by the returns being 44. J- E.

Counter affidavit was introduced by Rousseau counsel, admitting that 14 Republicans voted on June 30 and alleging that the vote of the 14 was even ly divided—Burke 7, Rousseau 7. Brushy Mountain Burke counsel alleged by af fidavit that 31 Republicans vot ed for Rousseau and none for Burke. Burke’s vote in the pre cinct was three. Counter • affi davit based on check by poll books aclmitted 13 Republicans voting, 12 for Rousseau and for Burke. Elk Number 1 Edward 'Wslsh, age 18, signed an affidavit to the effect that an absentee vote had been caat for him without his .knowledge or consent. Rousseau counsel ex plained this by producing evl Edwai^s Number 1 Burke’s 88 electors in this preclnot signed affidavit that they affiliated with the Demo cratic ' party. It was alleged that four Republicans voted for Rous seau. Affldarlt of the registrar declared that At * least three of the four alleged to be Republi cans are known Democrats.

Lovelace Rousseau counsel admitted by affidavit that 13 Republicans voted for Rousseau and one for Burke, according to a p^ll book count as against Tire 20 or more claimed by Burke affiants. Other Town.shlps Moravian Falls, Mulberry, Newcastle, North Wilkesboro, Reddies River, Rock Creek, Som ers and Stanton were taken up in respective order and similar allegations and admissions were made in each precinct by both sides. North Wilkesboro Vote The center of Republican vot ing was pointed to as North Wilkesboro, in which Mr. Rous seau polled a huge majority of the more than 1,200 votes cast. G. S. Forester, a judge of the primary, said that from observa tion and from information 233 Republicans voted for Rousseau. A check of the PoB books by Burke counsel showed that 194 who, voted Republican in the primary June 2 voted in the Democratic primary June 30, compared with the check made by the registrar, Frank Stafford, who found 137. Of the 137 affi davits were produced from Rous seau supporters tending to show from observation In the manner in Wblch they came to the polls and who brought them In that 72 voted for Burke and 65 for Rousseau. ^his Is in almost direct con trast to the allegations of pro testing counsel.

Hackett, a Rousseau worker, and he asked her to vote, saying that it made no difference If she was a Republican. She further stated that Mr. Hackett gave her a dollar for voting.

Thirty absentee ballots were challenged In North Wllkeaboro on the day of the primary by O. S. Forester on the grounds that some^ of .them, were not. register ed and some were Repnbllcana. ^Ifosi.qC the-To^ were counted; 1* W.
