The Lambeth Election: the Hustings at Kennington, 1857. Creator: Unknown
The Lambeth Election: the Hustings at Kennington, [London], 1857. The nomination took place...at the Triangle, Kennington-park...Mr. Roupell had an equestrian enveloped in his placards from head to foot, who dashed backwards in the midst of Mr. Williams's speech, interrupting one of his most telling periods. It was no wonder that he should call out "Don't pay attention to that mountebank!"...The most conspicuous [placard]...was one entreating the people to "Wote for Wiscount Villiams and the British haristocracy, " an allusion to the supposed cockney education of the honourable member, and a report that he had refused a Peerage...The three candidates having addressed the crowd, the show of hands was taken, and declared to be in favour of Messrs. Roupell and Williams...protests have been lodged against Mr. Roupell's return, by Mr. Wilkinson, on the ground of "incapacity and bribery"...From "Illustrated London News", 1857
