1823. June 27
Constitut. Code

(b) [the people] namely such namely of the whole number of of the members existing in the state of persons resident
in existing in any part of the territory of the State, at the time Election time such
as at the moment of time in question are admitted to act in the capacity of Electors. Who they are See
Ch. IV. and in Election Code. I For At the choice this part of the Code, the term
people, though so far from being in its import determinate, is
on account of its familiarity preferred for insertion into a place in
the part deemed preferable for the moment preferable: for prevention of uncertainty reference being made to this Expositive part, in
the requisite determinateness is thus given to it.

Aº 17-- for toasting the sovereignty of the people at a public dinner, two
English Privy-Counsellors, the Duke of Norfolk, and the Honorable
Charles Fox, were, by George the third, struck out of the list,
Dodsley's Annual Register for 17-- If, by this toast what was meant to be declared was a matter
of fact actually in existence, the fact thus declared
was enormously wide of the truth: if what was meant by it the toast
was a declaration that, in the opinion of those who joined
in it, that form of government as in which the sovereignty
of is in the people is the most desirable, the meaning of it is
that a form purely democratical is the most
desirable one. See As to this point see Ch. IV.
