Excerpt from Fragments of the Debates of the Iowa Constitutional Conventions of 1844 and 1846: Along With Press Comments and Other Materials on the Constitutions of 1844 and 1846
Apart from a bare journal of proceedings, the early constitution-makers of Iowa - I mean the members of the Constitutional Conventions of 1844 and 1846 - did not keep and preserve official records of their deliberations. This has always been a matter of regret, especially to students of our Constitutional History and Constitutional Law.
Nor has there up to this day appeared a Madison's Journal of these Iowa Constitutional Conventions. In deed it is not probable that any member kept a private journal of the debates.
