No. 31. Johnny’s “Turn;” or, New Year’s Joy.

Reading edition

The election of Mr. D’Arcy Boulton as Conservative Member for South Simcoe, in the Ontario Legislature, took place about this time. Although the influence of this event on the fortunes of the late Premier of the Dominion was hardly discoverable, it was hailed by the Conservative Press as the earnest of a reaction in favour of that party. A Mr. Saunders (whose face our artist had not seen) was Mr. Boulton’s opponent in the contest.

January 3rd, 1874.

No. 31.
