4 A judicial recount on 29 July 1924 gave Maxwell Smith four extra votes, reducing Catherwood's majority to nine (34 British Columbia Reports 246). A further recount appears to have taken place as a Supreme Court decision of 9 February 1925 which voided the election refers to Catherwood's majority as five. Catherwood was unseated but reinstated 8 June 1925.
