SEE ALSO 56230 Fortieth Legislature. Senate. No. 16. On February 23, 1861, the Governor sent over resolutions from the Illinois Legislature. The Illinois Legislature asked its Governor to appoint commissioners to the Peace Convention proposed by Virginia. The Legislature was not willing to back a constitutional amendment, but they were willing to discuss the issues. Should the Convention decide an amendment was necessary, Illinois expected the usual process to be followed.
