Excerpt from Journal of the Constitutional Convention of the State of New Hampshire: December, 1876 Mr. Poore of Derry said it was customary for such bodies as this to be sworn before acting, and therefore he moved that the delegates be sworn. Mr. Mason of Moultonborough hoped that the convention would dispense with that form. It seemed to him to be entirely idle, especially when members did not know what they were going to swear to. They came simply to frame a constitution which would be acceptable to the people, and, when they had done that, he thought the people would be satisfied. On motion of Mr. Gallinger of Concord, the motion of the gentleman from Derry was laid on the table. On motion of Mr. Mason of Moultonborough, the following resolution was adopted: Resolved, That we proceed to ballot for president of the convention.
