The clerk of the senate delivers the following message;
By the SENATE, November 19, 1806.
Gentlemen of the House of Delegates,
WE have been informed by our clerk, that in delivering the message last sent to your house from the senate,
he was not received in the customary form, no annunciation being made of a message, as has hitherto been when
a communication was to be received by one branch of the legislature from the other; we wish to be informed
why this was omitted, whether, it was by any order of your house, and if so, let us know the reasons that have
induced you to depart from that form of communication between the two houses which has been observed for
years. For one house to adopt a mode of receiving or sending messages different from that which has been long
observed and practised, without previously informing the other of the alteration, appears to us, to say the least.
