Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lennox and Addington Historical Society, Vol. 10: Papers and Records; The Newspapers of the County; A Historical Survey of the Newspapers of Lennox and Addington Presented in the Form of Extracts From the Old Files Lennox and Addington did not boast a newspaper as early as many of the other counties of the province. That was due to the fact that Kingston was the county town and the press of that place was the first established in Upper Canada and appeared to serve the needs of the people of this part of the old County of Frontenac, Lennox and Addington. The first publication to enter the field was The Napanee Bee, which made its bow to the public on the 2nd of November, ad. 1860. The editor and proprietor was the Rev. G. D. Greenleaf, who resigned the pulpit for the editorial chair, and in the rear of the press - room spent his spare hours in making and mending furniture. In his dual occupation he never quite abandoned his ministerial functions and frequently officiated in the Methodist pulpit on Sundays, and regularly padded his columns with lectures on temperance and never missed an opportunity to expose what he conceived to be the weaknesses of the other denominations. The Bee was a five column sheet of four pages, which was occasionally enlarged to s1x columns when matter was plentiful and orders were not awaiting fulfilment in the cabinet making branch of the establishment. The editor found it necessary to apologize at times for reducing its size. This was generally due to the scarcity of paper, but on one occasion the explanation was as follows, One of our printers having taken French leave of us on Sabbath evening and taken sans cerem'onie a watch belonging to another from our office, our being obliged in consequence to lose a day in catching and properly disposing of the thief and getting back the watch are the principal reasons of our being under the necessity of allowing our sheet to go out in its present appearance.

Book excerpt: Winner of the Ontario Historical Society’s Fred Landon Award for Best Regional History. Belleville, on the shores of the Bay of Quinte, traces its beginnings to the arrival of the United Empire Loyalists. For 30 years the centre of the present city was reserved for the Mississauga First Nation. White settlers who built dwellings and businesses on the land paid annual rent to them until the land was "surrendered" and a town plot laid out in 1816. The new town quickly became an important lumbering, farming, and manufacturing centre. Early influences include the Marmora Iron Works of the 1820s, the first railway in 1856, Ontario’s first gold rush in 1866, and prominent citizens such as noted pioneer author Susanna Moodie and Sir Mackenzie Bowell, Canada’s fifth prime minister. This is a personal history of Belleville, based on Gerry Boyce’s half-century of research. Embedded throughout are interesting and obscure stories about scandals, murders, and hauntings — the underbelly of the growth of a city.
Download or read book Idea of Loyalty in Upper Canada 1784 1850 written by David Mills and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1988-10-01 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tory loyalty, in addition to demanding unquestioning adherence to the imperial connection, was exclusive. It was used both to distinguish Loyalists from the American late-comers and to differentiate supporters of the political status quo from opponents of the administration. Tories and Reformers attached different qualities to loyalty. Although the Tories framed the political debate, a moderate Reform conception developed in response. The importance of loyalty was unchallenged by moderate Reformers, but they wished to redefine it in ways that would legitimize their own political goals. They appealed to British political traditions that emphasized the idea of individual dissent based on constitutional rights and the necessary independence of legislators threatened by the use of prerogative power as well as the corruption of the executive. By the 1830s, the polarization of politics seemed to offer only two choices - loyalty or disloyalty. This transitional period led to the emergence of moderate and accommodative Toryism as a response to the exclusiveness of the Family Compact. Moderate Toryism developed because other groups, who were not prepared to give up their political and social exclusion, had been drawn into the debate. The moderate Reformers survived through the 1840s and entered the administration. Tories also prospered through adoption of the Reform position permitting new groups to enter the High Tory elite. The result was the formation of a conservative consensus which dominated Upper Canada, whose conservatism lay in a new definition of loyalty which had evolved through the initiatives of moderate Reformers.
