Excerpt from Message of His Excellency Henry B. Harrison: Governor of Connecticut, to the General Assembly, Session of 1885 Grateful for the honor which has been conferred upon me, I enter upon my official duties with an earnest hope that I may be able to execute loyally and thoroughly the trust which has been committed to my hands. To you, gentlemen, belongs the highest function in the State. The Judicial department of the government expounds the laws; the Executive department takes care that they shall be faithfully executed; but you, and you alone, are invested with the high prerogative of making and unmaking, at your pleasure, the laws themselves. I congratulate you individually upon the fact that your several constituencies have declared you worthy to share in the exercise of a power so great; and I trust that our cordial co-operation with each other during your present session may promote, to some extent at least, the honor and welfare of our beloved Commonwealth.
