Scope and Content Note

The series consists of a one volume record used to track the progress of each resolution introduced in the Convention. Resolutions differ from propositions in that they relate to very specific issues favored by delegates and did not become part of the proposed Constitution. Often, resolutions relate to motions regarding the procedures of the Convention. For each resolution introduced, the volume contains the following: date of reception by Convention Secretary; introducer; resolution number; title; committee referred to; date amended; date reported; and date passed.
