Source: Smull's Legislative Handbook, 1877, pp. 271-272; Daily Morning Patriot (Harrisburg), 21 October 1872.
Smull and the Patriot show a Temperance Party state total of 1259. This does not agree with the sum of the reported county totals and is believed to have been an addition error by the compiler.
