SERIES: 12365
TITLE: Legislative bills record
DATES: 1917, 1919.
ARRANGEMENT:

DESCRIPTION: This series contains the letters of transmittal from the Legislature's chief clerk to Governor Bamberger and from Governor Bamberger to his Secretary of State. Letters officially inform the Governor that the Senate President and Speaker of the House have signed bill xxx and that it was now ready for his signature or veto. Letters of transmittal to the Secretary of State keep a record of what Governor Bamberger passed, what was vetoed and why. A messenger book is also contained in this series. This book was created by Joseph E. Shields, messenger to the Governor. The Legislature authorized the Governor to appoint any suitable person to the position (1917, Senate Concurrent Resolution 1) in order to expedite the business of the Legislature. The book notes legislative bill number and title with Shield's signature showing receipt and usually a note giving the date the bill was given to the Governor.
