Страница 255 - A better one would be that of November 29, in the same year, when the constitution was adopted by the convention at Chillicothe, or January 11, 1803, when the first, state election was held; but these and several others are unsupportable for various reasons. On February 19, 1803, Congress passed an act for the execution of the laws of the Union within the state of Ohio...
