J. MILLARD TAWES, Governor                        2263

1962 Special Session, Ch. 2—Garrett County

Executive Department
Annapolis, Maryland

Governor's Proclamation declaring the result of the
Election of November 6, 1962, for Referendum

Whereas, under authority contained in Article XVI of the Con-
stitution of Maryland, the Secretary of State, was legally and duly
petitioned by the qualified voters of Garrett County, Maryland, to
submit to the qualified voters of said County for their adoption or
rejection at the Election to be held on November 6, 1962, Chapter 2
of the Acts of the Special Session of the Legislature held on March 9,
1962; and

Whereas, the Secretary of State, acting under the authority
contained in said Article XVI of the Constitution of the State, did
at said election of November 6, 1962, so submit the said Act to the
qualified voters of Garrett County, Maryland; and

Whereas, from the returns of said election transmitted to me
as required by the provisions of Article XVI of the Constitution, it
appears that:

For the adoption of Chapter 2 aforesaid, 488 votes were cast and
against the adoption thereof, 3,047 votes were cast in said County.

Now, Therefore, I, J. Millard Tawes, Governor of Maryland,
do by this my Proclamation, issued under the authority and direction
contained in said Article XVI of the Constitution, hereby declare
and proclaim that in Garrett County, Maryland, a majority of the
votes having been cast against the adoption of the said referred law,
Chapter 2 of the Acts of the Special Session of the Legislature of
March 9, 1962, the same has failed of adoption and ratification and,
therefore, under the provisions of Article XVI of the Constitution,
stands rejected by a majority of the qualified voters of Garrett County.

Given Under My Hand and the Great Seal of the State of
Maryland, Done at the City of Annapolis, this 30th day
of November, In the Year of Our Lord, One Thousand
Nine Hundred and Sixty-two.

(The Great Seal

of the
State of Maryland)

(s) J. MILLARD TAWES,

By the Governor:

(s) LLOYD L. SIMPKINS,

Secretary of State.
