Cole v. Perry
6 Cow. 584
N.Y. Sup. Ct.
1827
Check Treatment
Curia.

The statute relied upon is merely directory to the officer drawing the ballots. We have often holden this in relation to statutes of a similar character. No abuse or injury to the defendant being pretended, and no objection made at the time, the mistake of the officer is not a ground for setting aside the proceedings.

Motion denied.
