(1853.)] On the 26th of May, 1853 a Select Committee was appointed to try to determine the matter of the Petition of John Patrick Somers, complaining of an undue Election and Return for the Borough of Sligo. The men appointed were: Charles Hindley, Esq., Sir Edmund Filmer, Bart., Hon. William Henry Berkeley Portman, William John Evelyn, Esq. And Chairman- Edward Divett, Esq. The Committee determined:- -That Charles Towneley, esq. Is not duly elected a Burgess to serve in this present Parliament for the Borough of Sligo. -That the last Election for the said Borough is a void Election. The Committee had also agreed to the following resolutions: -That Charles Towneley was, by his agents, guilty of bribery and treating at the last election for the Borough of Sligo. -That Jeremiah Joyce O’Donavan was bribed by Henry Stonor to forbear giving his vote, which he had promised to Mr. Somers, and in consequence absented himself during the Election. -That it was not proved that the acts of bribery and treating were committed with the knowledge and consent of Charles Towneley. -That the influence of the Roman-catholic Priests was exercised in a manner inconsistent with their duty as Ministers of Religion, and destructive of freedom of choice on the part of the voters. 130pp. Disbound, housed in a protective file
