In many of the returns allowed by your Committee to have been duly made the name of the town was not set against the signature of the Selectmen, either on the inside or outside of said return, but as there was enough in the body of the returns to show from what towns they came, your Committee allowed and counted them.

The return from New Vineyard in the County of Somerset, although made into the Office of the Secretary of State on season was not sealed up, as the Constitution requires, and the voted were rejected by your Committee.

The returns from Froy in the County of Waldo, Brownfield in the County of Oxford, Deseter in the County of Penobscot, and Pembrolie and Whiting in the County of Washington were not at tested.
