Journal, Leavenworth Constitutional Convention Author: Tappan, S. F. (Samuel Forster), d. 1913 Date: April 1, 1858 The delegates considered the "Homestead Exemption" during the morning session, April 1, 1858. The provision was amended so as to make the basic exemption 160 acres or not over $2,000. The vote on this was recorded, and the yeas and nays are followed by numerous explanations--delegates who voted nay but not because they opposed the concept.
