Of the 41 who showed up 39 were found qualified to become electors and the oath was administered to them. The other two were rejected for variois reasons. As sixty-five names crossed from last year's list because of deaths or removals from town this year's list . will be even smaller. Be- oause so few were made Saturday, their being given a chance to vote will not have much bearing on the town election which will be held a week from today, it is thought.
