laborers, bricklayers and other workmen, ag-
gregating nearly one thousand dollars, and
sworn to by such claimants, for work and labor
done upon the library annex, chiefly during the
year eighteen hundred and eighty-seven, by said
claimants, and unpaid ; and, whereas, numerous
other bills and claims of material men for mate-
rial used in the construction of said building,
and of sub-contractors for work done and mate-
rial provided for said building, have been exhib-
ited and made known to said joint committee ;

loss and aided in the collection of their claims ;
therefore —
Be it Resolved by the General Assembly of
