About Reporter
The Reporter of March 24, 1847 published the debates of the House of Assembly and a few paragraphs of local news. According to Lieutenant Governor Huntley, the Reporter was
published by those members of the House of Assembly in opposition to the Family Compact, so that they could get their speeches faithfully reported, as they were being misconstrued or not reported at all in the Islander and the Royal Gazette.
