Wel ^j^preen for surveyor had, no opposition and Dr. Wm. St. J^ren Jervey was elected coroner over J. L. Smith. More people voted for sheriff than for any other office. The total was 3,656, about .100 more votes than were received by the others. It seems as if about 100 people voted for former Sheriff Westbrook and nobody else.
