W. H. on taking the chair at the evening Gentlemen of the thank you sincerely for assigning me the duty oi presiding over this and I recognize that the selection is because I am the surviving presiding of the first Legislature held under the present perform the duty with mingled feelings of pleasure and of which I find it to in meeting again comrades of a third of a century and pain at the realization of the fact that so many have passed and that the others must speedily never so fully realized the shortness of life and the transitory nature of all worldly honors and as 1 have since the call for this reunion has developed that so many of my old comrades are I remember friends so together I've seen around me Like leaves In wintry I feel like one Who treads alone Some banquet hall Whose lights are Whose garlands And all but he the little body of great men who formed the first Constitution of in 1816. have long since passed as have I all the members of the first thirteen General Assemblies of the may bo mistaken in but if there bo a member of any Legislature of this held prior to 1831,1 do not know and I have made diligent to General Assembly which met in 1835 was the 20th that had been held up to that and the of members elected would aggregate and yet to day you could probably count all who survive on the of one Even including all the Legislatures up to 1810, there are probably not over a dozen surviving of the thousands the twenty-five Legislatures which had then been Coming live years to 18i5, would probably not increase the number to over would doubtless like to know who these venerable and patriotic To state of the personnel ot the first General Assembly held under the and to give some account as to who are the survivors ot the preceding will be the object of this have already said that I have not heard of anv one being alive who was a member of any of this State held prior to 1831. There may of and one of my objects In making this address is to call out the as may be but I think that Hon. Alexander C. represented Putnam County in the House of Representatives surviving member - f that and of all the Legislatures back to the organization of the next come to the Assembly of 1832-3.  have not been able to find that any member of that Legislature survives except John C. then one of the Representatives from tho County of father was a member of tho Legislature also 01 1H33-4, and often heard him talk about the session being held in the House of Morion and also about who then but 1 have been unable to find that any of the of are now Daniel a member of that was interest In'T this unfortunately he died since the call was B. and that is my distinguished Col. Richard whom 1 am sure you all delight to Incidentally I will state a fact in connection with this Legislature which may be of as it wonderful progress the country has that It Is that the record that died near was then the sole representative of Marion and Hamilton counties and all the country north of the great Miami find that my friend Thomoson was returned to the next which met in 1835, and with him ame another of my old a Representative from Henry and now a highly esteemed citizen of as far asT is another old Christopher C. now a resident ot Red is a little singular that the same three and are survivors of the n xt be added Joshua B. a Representative from Perry and Dr. N. who subsequently served With In the Senate of the United and Graham again turned up as the as fat as I of the ot 1831-8. My friend Thompson seems not to have been a a political struck him about or he or got tired of the he can tell you more entertainingly than any man to the ot Carr and C. C. Graham as far as the only so that it would seem that? of the twenty-three Legislatures held up to that tim there are probably less tha i a dozen I know ot but eight at this but there may be and probably These Legislatures were all held betoro my but I now come to of which I have some personal first Legislature I ever saw was the Indiana Legislature of 18:i9--'40 It was a great event to at that time of my humble and has made a marked my rode three days ou horseback from Scott to In winter weather and over the worst possible to see it and attend a Democratic State although I was not then of age by several I may say that the convention nominated General Tighlman A. Howard for He badly although a very so I the bitter of the political defeat ot my party and had so much cf Cass and at pioneers in the I he last twenty-five years that I have learned to take such things quite had then a population of only a few but was putting on city airs even at that I remember there was a riot one night soon after my growing out of I he m of a negro man and white and it made a terrible who was a member of the Indiana Leg one time or another for nearly twenty was a member of that and I remember thac I boarded with during my stay of several at a house kept by Bazil Brown on the east aide of near Tennessee The house is still but I think every one of tae stopping and there were have long since passed and I know of but four members of that Legislature now They are Fabius M. C. James S. and Amzi L. to the Legislature of 1810-41, the only members of it that I know to be alive are A. O. W. James C. and Aaron the next 18 my venerable friend Joseph F. who I am glad to sea here was principal Clerk of the and he me that he knows ot but seven members of that Legislature now W. James A. C. Christopher C. Aaron James S. and John was present at the organization of the Legislature of 1842-13, and had acquaintance of the m as I was for the a candidate for a legislative and trying to learn the art of with the those surviving of that delegation I can name now of Amzi L. George AV. Joshua B. James Ritchey and Franklin had a very intimate acquaintance the members of the Legislature of 184a-4 by reason of being principal of the House of Judge William T. long the Reporter of the Supreme Court of the United was the Secretary of and is st U but Jesse D. Bright the President of the and Andrew Ti. thj Speaker of the and nearly all of the ISO men who were my associates in that busy with the affairs of and full the hopes and ambitions and cares of have nuuc lu eternal called the ron ur uic lou ot that House a great many times in that but were I to call it now I know but live left to and but four George W. James R tch and John Pitcher are the and the Representatives are Augustus C. W. W. D and my old and highly valued David who was from my We rode three days the roads ever seen by mortal man to reach the capital He came a greater distance in about three hours to attend this now come to the Legislature of 1844-5. When that Legislature the duty devolved on as Chief of calling the House to order If I should call the same old roll I think less than a dozen would be found alive to I will call Kuch as I know to be A. C. Alexander B. Franklin David James S. J. B. William W. Robert Augustus C. and of tho George Berry and James may be but these are all I know to be I went to Washington City before the close of that where I rem ined several had no connection with the Indiana Legislature until I was elected to the first one held under the new TO pass over the Legislatures which met during my absence iu Washington of my lack of information about them and because others are here better prepared to speak of men as William E. Delano E. Andrew M. L. Jos. H. L B. J. A. Jonathan S. M. Michael C. F. A. B. George W. and other gentlemen who I see have not time to were members of those and they were all important and able what I have further to say on this occasion I shall sneak only of the first Legislature held under the present was the understanding iu advance that It was going to be a Legislature of unusual The new Constitution had Just been adopted by an Immense majority of the Its adoption made a careful revision of the laws necessary in order that they should conform to its The work devolved on the in a continuation of the work begun and outlined by the The new Constitution required that the forms and practice in the which had before that time been very intricate and should be revised and the pleading made more the then prevailing between law and equity and that the general statute law of the should be reduced to a plain and systematic whole temple of State from spire to foundation had to be taken so as to to the new Constitution aud the progress and improvements of the do all this and much more was devolved on the first and consequently that Legislature was not restricted by the Constitution as to length of It was necessarily longer in session than any Legislature ever held in. the having met on the 1st of 18.M, - - to that elected a Many of the had served in the vention which framed the and in previous it was a splendid body of representative glauce over the list will many names of high standing and recognized abll most of whom were called to high and honorable Great as was the number of members of the Constitutional Convention called to represent the people in the of United more were called from the H.
