SUBSTITUTE WAS ENROLLED.
From the above statement OF facts taken
from the Journals It appears that tho
original bill which authorized the city

both the Senate and was concurred in by
tho House Notwithstanding which the
substitute bin was enrolled as appears on
Page 965 OF the House Journal and Page
s51 of tho Senate Journal and was submit
ted to the Governor, approved by him and
published in Volume "A OF the Laws OF
Delaware
The constitution OF tho state pro-
vision that mo bill or join resolution
except bills appropriating money f,r
public purposes shall embrace more
than ono subject which shall be ex-
pressed in its title" The constitu-
tion further provides for Section 10,
Article .. that each house shall keep
journal OF its proceedings and
publish the same Immediately after
every session, except such parts AS
may require secrecy and the yeas and
nays Of the members on any question
shall at the desire Of any member be
entered on the journal. No bin nr
joint resolution except in relation to

unless the final vote shall have been
taken by yeas and nays, and the
names OF the members voting for and
against the same shall be entered on
the journal, nor without the concur
renee Of a majority of all the men,
ebrs elected to each House"
II can be seen that the bill which
was published as passed to correct the
amendment to the city charter did not
pass either House. according 20 the
senate or House Journals. although
