RESOLVED, that in the opinion of the Council they do not contain any charge against the said David Thomas, as colonel com- mandant of the brigade of militia in the county of Washington, which would justify his arrest, except that of not having approved the sentence of a court martial held by his order for the trial of Captain Daniel Mason; and that in this instance it appears from the papers before the Council that the sentence of said court was pronounced on the 13th day of October last and approved by the said David Thomas, as lieutenant colonel commandant of the said brigade in general orders dated the 28th of that month.
AND WHEREAS the said David Thomas was on the second day of April last appointed, by this Council, brigadier general of the said brigade of militia in the room of John Williams, superseded and removed from that office, but owing to some accident the said appointment was not entered on the minutes of the Council; therefore,
RESOLVED, that the said David Thomas be and he is hereby appointed brigadier general of the brigade of militia of the county of Washington, to take rank as such from the said second day of April last.

It was during this session of the legislature that the discovery of State Treasurer M'Clallen's defalcation was made. The amount involved was $33,000.

Appointment in the removal of Brigadier General (Jonathan) For- man; which procedure on the part of the said officers this Council conceive not only to be highly indecorous and reprehensible but evidential of a spirit of combination with Lieutenant Colonels (John) Lincklaen and (Samuel) Clemens, and other officers of their respec- tive regiments; who have heretofore assigned similar reasons for their resignations, calculated to subvert the established discipline of the militia and to produce among them insubordination; therefore,
RESOLVED, that the resignations of the said Lemuel Kingsbury and Ebenezer Lyon be not accepted; but inasmuch as the said Lemuel Kingsbury and Ebenezer Lyon appear to the Council to be unworthy to hold any longer their said offices, it is further Resolved, that they be and hereby are superseded from holding the said offices, and that supersedeas issue accordingly.
