Excerpt from Eighth Report of the Bureau of Archives for the Province of Ontario, 1911
NO volumes of Ontario Archives have been more in demand than those con taining the Journals of the Legislature and Legislative Council of Upper Canada, since the appearance of the first volume in 1909. It cannot be otherwise than gratifying that an interest sincere and Widespread is thus manifested in the sources of our Provincial history.
The Ontario Bureau of Archives invites the co-operation of the growing class of students of local history throughout the Province, and will gratefully receive and carefully preserve papers and documents - especially of an official character placed in its collection.
The contents of the volume now given to the public, calls for no special comment from the Provincial Archivist, than that no trace has been yet found of the missing numbers for the years 1794, 1795, 1796, 1797, 1809, 1813, and 1815, and that the search shall not be abandoned.
As in preceding volumes the aim has been to furnish a literal reproduction of the original mss.; no liberty has been taken with the form in which the Clerk of the House recorded the proceedings.
Continuing with the Journals for 1812, the mss. For the next Report is already in the printers' hands.
