stuffed out the figure of a man and
had intended to burn Dr. Chisholm in

feat. But, alas, 'twas their own Ulan
who suffered defeat at the polls, and
the slummy was left on their hands.
The Tories were in high spirits and
generously offered the Grits $1 for
their,dummy which offer was at first
accepted but later on refused. The
Tories then stuffed out a figure and
burned Dr. Macdonald in effigy, and
the Grits took some consolation in Mr.
Borden's defeat and used their dum-
my to burn him in effigy with, but
it was a downhearted celebration,
they could not be reconciled with the
loss of the three Huron constituencies.
It is said that some of then even wept
for gief.
