The Thencanic Society's mock congress for the first months of 1894 produced this packet of dockets, which includes the title of each bill and their supporters, plus a summary of further actions and the results of any votes. They unfortunately do not include the full text of each bill. Nevertheless, these dockets shed light onto the topics the Society deemed important, such as women's suffrage, annexing Canada, immigration, and the prohibition of alcoholic beverages. A partial transcription is included, which provides only a summary of each bill without directly copying them verbatim. Not every student's name has been connected with a person.
