At a meeting in March, 1843, a com mittee ofl'2 was appointed to "consider measures for the oivil and military pro tection of this colony." Tbis committee reortcd, at a second meeting of all the settlers, held at (Jbampeog, May 2d, 184:!, in favor of a Dolitical organization, to continue in force until the United States should establish a territorial gov ernment. The ubjcta of Great Britain could not acquie'ce In such action, as it would have amounted to renunciation of their allegiance to Great Britain and consent to the Aoiercian claim of sov ereignty. When the motion was put there was a division on National lines. The chairman was unable to decide which party had the majority. Then Joseph U. Meek exclaimed : -'Who's for a dtvltle All lor ine report ol tbe com mittee and an organization, follow me!" The ell'eet was electrical.. The men on either side fell into their places to be counted.
