Mn RANDALL, CHAPLAIN OF THE IIorsE.
The Speaker declared recess, and re-
quested the members to retain their seats.
Then turning to the Rev. Mr.. Randall, the
Speaker said MIR. Randall, | have been
asked by your many friends in the House to
perform what is to me very pleasant duty
You have been, for now many years, asso-
ciated with the Legislature of Maine in
your present capacity. Your services have
always been very gladly and protitably re-
ceived. The members of the Legislatures
gone by remember with grateful pleasure
your efforts in their behalf. The members
of this Legislat re from day to day have
listened to you as you have asked for them
the blessings of the Divine Being and in
behalf of your many friends, now present
to you this token of their regard. Take it,
with their best and most heartfelt wishes
and as this shall measure the days and the
hours as they pass, it is the wish of your
may descend very slowly for you in the
western horizon.
Rev. Mr.. Randall responded as follows
