A speech by Dem Branch of Weare preceded a largely party line anticipated passage, with support from many Democrats and at least 25 Republicans. If enacted, Governor Goodell might sign without a formal signature. Other business included a Concord & Portsmouth railroad stock increase to 150,000 dollars for relaying rails, and a proposed Australian allot system modification. The Mirror of Manchester accuses crooked dealings on a normal school bill passage, with possible investigation pending.
