[4]"Emmit's seat was contested by John Craw, apparently on the ground that voters had been bribed or coerced. The convention forces apparently took up the contest in the hope of getting the additional vote they needed, but apparently after securing Shaw's vote concluded to make no further use of Craw's contest."
