Nlr Page said he was unaccustomed u
public speaking and would therefore brief
ly return his thanks to the convention fol
the confidence reposed in him. He felt
that it was work of the faith Of the con.
euvtion rather than of its knowledge, since
his first official report had not yet been
Iuade, but be hoped this confidence wonld
be justified by the result. To that end
he would give his best powers, and he
should esteem himself happy indeed, if he
should be able to come up to the standard
of excellence reached by his predecessor,
who had to day been called to Ego up
higher" He wouod say. and he belIev-
ed truly say, that IN the great monied
centres of the country. where the financial
condition of individuals, States and ma
lions is carefully scrutinixed. the credit of
Vermont is to day as high as that of any
other State. He trusted that her credit
would be maintained uuimpaired, and if
integrity and fidelity will do it, these he
'ould pledge. He might make mistakes
but be could do no intentional wrong,
md he hoped that he would be able to
lischarge successfully the responsible du.
les committed to him. applause.
