Nelson in the Beginning
“My home, the city and the image of well known places pass before my eyes, and each event follows in its turn.”—Tristia. Wednesday, 4th May, 1842. — A WARNING TO BOAT PROPRIETORS On the 13th of April last. I was hired by two of the constables of Nelson to go, with my boat and crew on board the schooner Gem. on police business. On applying to the Police Magistrate for payment (£2), he said he was unable to settle my demand and that I should possibly have to wait twelve months before the Government would pay it. Being about to leave this settlement, I shall, of course, lose this sum. Michael Peel. Nelson, 4th May.
