Notes: Charles Lancelot Garland did not contest the election. The Daily Telegraph listed Donnelly as an elected Labor member in its election summary, 4 July 1891, p.9 col.1, but according to Nairn (p.68) he promptly denied any affiliation.
Source: Reported totals from SMH 23 June 1891, p.5 col.8, which seem only slightly different from incomplete results published with booth details, SMH 20 June, p.10 col.3
Corrections: Hughes and Graham (1975) use totals published SMH 22 June 1891, p.5 col.8.
