1602 JOURNAL OF HOUSE OF DELEGATES.
I congratulate you upon the results of your deliber-
ations, and when the measures you have passed and
the bills which you have defeated come to be con-
sidered in theii practical consequences, I believe it
will be found that your work has been done with in-
telligent discrimination, as I am sure it has been
with absolute integrity and independence.
Many and great differences of opinion have natur-
ally existed amongst us upon the important measures
of the session, and doubtless, there are not a few dis-
appointments over some of your conclusions.
But the views of the majority fairly expressed, after
full discussion, shall be accepted, not only with good
temper, but also with respectful deference, as contain-
ing the best judgment of the honest and intelligent
representatives of the people.
You will go home to your constituents after these
ninety days spent in their service, with the proud
satisfaction that you came here with the sincere and
resolute purpose to do your best to advance the
the interest and promote the prosperity of our dear
old State, and that you have done your work with
gratifying soundness of judgment and with perfect
uprightness.
I wish for you all the fullest measure of happiness
and success in the private walks of life to which you
are about to return, and now declare this House
adjourned without day.
Attest:—CARLTON SHAFER,
Chief Clerk.
WM, S. MERRICK,
Journal Clerk.
