The transcript captures the dialogue of legislators in response to special proclamations given by Governor James P.

The transcript includes communications between the Indiana House and Senate, committee reports, proclamations, resolutions, and motions; these documents describe the inner workings of a special legislative session and the ways in which legislators negotiate, debate, and amend policy. The text adds to the historical record of Indiana's legislative history and provides readers with primary source material useful for understanding the processes of lawmaking.
