Dr. Helmcken's Article. The First Legislature
View the original page from the Jan 1st 1891 Colonist, featuring
Dr. Helmcken's Article.
This will give you an idea of the appearance of the early Colonist but unfortunately Helmcken's article is too distorted to be able to be read.
To read Dr. Helmcken's article visit your local library.
Look for the book entitled "The Reminiscences of Doctor John Sebastian Helmcken" edited by Dorothy Blakey Smith. The article is called "The First Legislature" and it can be found on page 331.
