THE PRESIDENT: The enabling act says the

2

Convention shall provide for it in the Constitution and in

3

two places it refers to the schedule as attached so we thought

4

it would be better to do it this way.

5

DELEGATE PENNIMAN: The line is line 39 on page

6

51. That would appear not to be correct. It might be line

7

39 on page 52 or it might be line 26 on page 51.

8

THE PRESIDENT: Are you referring to the blue

9

copy?

10

DELEGATE PENNIMAN: No.

11

THE PRESIDENT: It is line 39 merely to indicate

12

it comes after the Constitution. It is not part of Section

13

10. It is just the concluding clause.

14

Delegate Burdette.

15

DELEGATE BURDETTE: I wonder if I might ask

16

Delegate Penniman if he would accept one of my pet preferences

17

that there be a comma after the word "Maryland" in line 19

18

and conforming to the old usage that the comma after

19

"Annapolis" is elliptical for the meaning of "State of."

20

THE PRESIDENT: Delegate Penniman, do you accept

21

j the modification?
