On page 243 of the 1922 'History of the Barge Canal', Noble Whitford
states, "The Legislature, convened by the Governor in extraordinary session
in June, remained in session the rest of the year and meantime removed the
Governor from office." Then he moves back into canal affairs and leaves use
hanging although I'm sure that anyone reading it when it was originally
published would know about this episode.

My questions are:

(1)     Who was the Governor?
(2)     Why was the special session called?
(3)     How and why was the Governor removed from office?

Thanks in advance,
