Summing Up

Miss Olsen and Mr. Elwood then summed up their respective rases The latter replied to Mr. Cruder, that he was in full control of his senses (Cheers), and that he and his partner had accepted the "sharp edge of the wedge" in this debate in decency ("Ooooo he accepted indecency!"). "If the utter irrcievancies of the opposing Side were tarred, they would make a main highway."

The motion was then put to the audience, and was carried ( in the negative form) by eight votes to five A second vote was taken to enable Mr. Milburn to cast his vote, and the voting this time was even. The chairman declined to use his casting vote as he left that the motion was an indication of an opinion of the house rather than a fact.
