applaud the legislators II they would
perform this duty. Greenwich moved to

posed to this sort of thing saying that
he had come here for work and not to
look at drills. He declared he did not
want this legislature to be the same as
the previous one. But the House &C
cepted the invitation nevertheless and
then on motion of Kaniho adjourned
