Page 68 of this handwritten manuscript shows the Senate's business set down by hand, in the careful script clerks used to keep the chamber's official record. Before printed transcripts became routine, pages like this were the primary source for tracing motions, votes, and the order of debate. Readers interested in how the Senate documented its proceedings will find that the handwriting itself shows how the record was built, one entry at a time, as business moved forward.
