BOOK VIII: THE FLASHING OF THE HANDJAR
2/51

The consensus of opinion was entirely to the effect that the Voivode Peter Vissarion should, if he would accept the high office, be appointed.

It was urged that, as his daughter, the Voivodin Teuta, was now married to the Englishman, Rupert Sent Leger--called generally by the mountaineers "the Gospodar Rupert"-- a successor to follow the Voivode when God should call him would be at hand--a successor worthy in every way to succeed to so illustrious a post.

It was urged by several speakers, with general acquiescence, that already Mr.Sent Leger's services to the State were such that he would be in himself a worthy person to begin the new Dynasty; but that, as he was now allied to the Voivode Peter Vissarion, it was becoming that the elder, born of the nation, should receive the first honour.
THE SAME--_Continued_.
The adjourned meeting of certain members of the National Council was resumed in the Hall of the State House at Plazac on Monday, September 2nd, 1907.

By motion the same chairman was appointed, and the rule regarding the record renewed.
Reports were made by the various members of the Council in turn, according to the State Roll.

Every district was represented.
