'You tell me solemnly that Thyrza still wishes to be my wife? 'She does. She wishes to be your wife, Gilbert. To Lydia her sister's fate hung in the balance. What she uttered was verbally true. Before rising, Thyrza had said: 'I will marry him. In the possible breaking of this bond Lydia saw such a terrible danger that her instincts of absolute sincerity for once were overridden.

It is the only instance in a national election where the will of the people at the polls has been defied and overridden. Hayes was a sincere and honest man, and he felt keenly the cloud which the manner of his election cast over his administration. He was never popular with his party, and no doubt he felt that the debt he owed it for getting him his seat was a doubtful one.
