Source: Report of nominations, 18 November 1880, p.7 col.3-4, results from SMH 22 November, p.3 col.3 including booth totals. Slightly different total of 755 for Stanley reported in the SMH election summary, 8 December, p.3 col.5.
Corrections: SMH listed Sutherland as a sitting MP in its election summary, 8 December. However, he had resigned from parliament temporarily in February 1880, so was not a sitting MP at the 1880 election.
