And the question being taken on the motion as amended, it was
Resolved, That William Duane having appeared at the bar of the Senate, and requested to be heard by counsel, on the charge against him for a breach of privileges of the Senate, he be allowed the assistance of counsel while personally attending at the bar of the Senate, who may be heard in denial of any facts charged against said Duane, or in excuse and extenuation of his offence.
A motion was made that it be an instruction to the Committee of Privileges to report in what manner witnesses shall be compelled to attend the Senate in support of the charge against William Duane, and in his defence against that charge.
And, after debate, the further consideration thereof was postponed.
Resolved, That a copy of the resolution last agreed to be sent to William Duane, and at the same time, he be ordered to attend at the bar of this House at 12 o'clock, on Wednesday next.
