Book excerpt: Excerpt from Eighteenth Report of the Department of Public Records and Archives of Ontario, 1929 Following last year's Report in due sequence, this volume, the eighteenth in the series, contains, in the main, original documents concerning the peopling of the Province of Upper Canada in the epochal years from 1792 to 1796, covering the entire Administration of John Graves Simcoe, first Lieutenant Governor of the Province. In 1791 the Province of Quebec was divided into Upper and Lower Canada, each Province having its own legislature and separate government. Colonel Simcoe was detained at Quebec on account of the non-arrival of the appointed members of the Executive Council, without a quorum of which he could not be sworn in nor enter upon his official duties. It is a curious co incidence that on his departure from Canada in 1796 he was again delayed at Quebec for a considerable time owing to an unexpected interruption of his sailing arrangements. In this enforced interval, Simcoe was engaged in planning the structure of government for the Province-the social and institutional life of which he was the inspirer and real founder; so that on his arrival at Kingston early in the month of July, 1792, he was ready, without delay, to take up the work of his office. The Executive Council was at once organized. The first members to be sworn in were William Osgoode and Peter Russell. The Council thus constituted tendered the oaths to His Excellency. The oaths administered at that time may be referred to in Appendix II. Then began the daily meetings, the record of which bears testimony to the unceasing activity and to the thoroughness with which, to the minutest detail, the arduous duties of the Lieutenant Governor were discharged.

This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nineteenth Report of the Department of Public Records and Archives of Ontario, 1930 The contents Of this volume are a continuation of data on the Settlement of Upper Canada contained in several previous Reports. Of this invaluable original material, constituting official State documents, there is in the Ontario Archives a considerable quantity which is being gradually prepared for publication and, as conditions permit, will appear. The Department is under Obligation which falls here to be gratefully acknowledged. Early this year two valuable oils were received, each from the brush of Benjamin West, in his day an artist of note. One depicts the death of Wolfe, a scene familiar by copies and engravings of West's original. The other is a striking representation of the naval action Off La Hogue in 1692, a victory important to the British cause and an example of characteristic British seamanship. It may be incidentally mentioned that the canvas in each case is expansive, measuring eight feet in length and five feet four inches in height. Both pictures have attracted the attention of many visitors, who are always made welcome in the Department.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume, the fifth of the Ontario Series of the Champlain Society, tells the history of the town of York (Toronto) from the arrival of John Graves Simcoe in 1793 through the war of 1812 until news of the peace reached the town in the spring of 1815. The selection of contemporary documents attempts to show why York was chosen for a settlement in the first place, the kind of community that developed, and the effect of the War on that community. Apart from the normal problems connected with the establishment of any settlement, the officials of the town of York were faced with the necessity of creating a worthy capital city for Upper Canada at a time when Kingston because of its pre-eminence as the military and naval centre of the province and its commercial prosperity overshadowed all other settlements. The book also illustrates the gradual integration into a corporate body of many diverse elements—senior government officials, discharged soldiers, tradesmen, labourers—so that by 1815 the characteristics of modern Toronto were beginning to be evident in York. This collection of documents and the editor's Introduction will provide the student of local history with a good deal of primary material and the general reader with an interesting account of the early years of the modern metropolis of Toronto. Vol. V, Ontario Series, Champlain Society.
