Demas, in accordance with previous notice, |
introduced document entitled an act re-
pealing an act authorizing tho Governor to |

Murrell, of Madison, got mad. The act was
to punish that man (meaning Dibble) for his
letter.
Demas got mad also. It was an act for no
such purpose, it was for reform.
Murrell could not see it, and shouting
match was the result, much to the immense
satisfaction Of the members.
Murrell gave out, and Demas was happy.
He got the bill through to its second reading,
when Murrell, who had revived, moved that
further consideration be postponed.
Demas, as substitute, moved that the bill
be referred to the judiciary Committee when
appointed.
Murrcll accepted it. He had confidence in
any judiciary committee that the chair might
appoint
Demas assured Murrell that so far as his
confidence was concerned, it mattered 'nix"
Murrell assured Demas, that if he (Murrell>
did not have confidence in somebody else, he
would second no motion made by him, be-
cause he (MurrelD had not confidence in him
Demas.)
1t required great exsrtions on the part of
Murrell to get of this. but he seemed to feel
better after it,
