resolution; and that Mr. NEWTON, Mr. HAMMOND, Mr. TALLMADGE, Mr. VAN
CORTLANDT, and Mr. MARMADUKE WILLIAMS, do prepare and bring in the same.
THURSDAY, November 24.
_Amy Dardin._
On the motion of Mr. CLAIBORNE, the House resolved itself into a
Committee of the Whole on the report of the Committee of Claims on the
petition of Amy Dardin. The report is unfavorable to the prayer of the
petitioner.
On agreeing to this report, a discussion took place which occupied the
greater part of the day. Messrs. J. C. SMITH, GREGG, and MACON supported,
and Messrs. CLAIBORNE, SMILIE, and ELLIOT opposed the report; when the
question was taken on agreeing to the report of the Committee of Claims
and lost--ayes 32.
Mr. CLAIBORNE then moved a resolution, “that the prayer of Amy Dardin is
reasonable and ought to be granted.”
