Notes

Proposed resolution of the House suggesting a state-wide convention to bring the Virginia constitution in line with the new Federal one, largely by restricting the power of legislature; House orders motion printed and circulated within the state for consideration at an ensuing session of Assembly. Sheet lacks printer credit; typography matches that seen in journal of the House of Delegates for this day of the session, published later by John Dixon, then printer to the Commonwealth; hence the attribution here.
