Mr. Atkinson, of Blandford, Mr. Phippard, and Mr, Trevenen, appeared to support the Conservatives, Mr. Weston of Dorchester, Mr. Bartlett, and Mr. Lacey, appeared for the Liberals. There were some 160 claims and objections, a fact amply testifying that the two parties cherish the advice of the late Sir Robert Peel, to fight the battle of the hustings in the Revision Court. It would, of course, be a useless occupation of our space to give a detailed account of the claim and objection in every case, where there were so many, and we shall therefore content ourselves with giving his honour's decision on the most important points on which discussions arose. The list for Bere Regis was first taken. Richard Scutt, jun., claimed partner with his father on farm rent of £85 a year. Both names were marked on the waggons, and both names appeared in the rate-books, and claimant had been the register before but last year he lost his vote from being objected to, and having business at Woodbury Hill fair, was unable to attend at Wareham (which was on the same day) to support his right to be on the register. Claim allowed.] [R S - 86yr.] [Will 6 Nov 1869 - Blandford.]
