At the election in November 1852, however, the Whigs so far prevailed over the combined opposition as to secure a majority in the legislature, upon which body for several years had de volved the choice of Governor in default of any election by a majority of the votes of the people - and John H. Clifford, a sterling Whig, was chosen Governor for the year 1853. Ed ward Everett was chosen to the United States Senate, but re signed June 1, 1854. Meanwhile the coalition parties had al ready arranged for a Convention of Delegates to convene in the summer of 1853 for the revision and amendment of the Constitution, and at the elections in March they secured a large majority of the delegates. The Convention assembled in May, and sat through the three months of May, J nne and J uly, ma turing a thorough and complete change in the fundamental law of the Commonwealth. Their work was submitted to the peo ple at the State election in November, 1853, and the whole of it was rejected.
