 After this list of delegates had been read Colonel T. F Callahan introduced a resolution to the effect that delega- tion be selected consisting of one mem Der from each of the twelve larger wards and three alternates from each of the three smaller wards Colonel Callahan said that he thought this should be done to insure New Haven representation in the probate conVen- tion, as he did not think that the con- vention would accept a delegation of forty members from New Haven. His resolution was, however, laid on the table by a unanimous vote.
