That neither the house nor the committee have any reliable information that the people of Perry county desire any legislation upon that subject. That the question of the location of the county seat has been twice submitted to the people of Perry county within the last six years. That in view of the serious evils attending the continued agitatior of this subject, the people of Perry county, of all sections and parties, prior to the late election for senator and representative, agreed that there should be no further legislation on that subject, and that pledges were required of, and given by the candidates for said offices, that if elected, all such legislation should be resisted during their term of office.
