Tt was at Fort Langley on November 19, 1858, that Gov-| ernor Douglas was “sworn in” as the first governor of British Columbia. This important oc-| casion in the development of | British Columbia has marked | Fort Langley as the focal point of attention for residents and | visitors alike. | The local people are justly | proud of the role their “Fort” played in the process of em- pire, and later nation building. and refer to this attractive} town as “the first capital | BC.” The efforts of Langley resi- dents through the citizen} groups and the municipal and/ city councils in focussing atten- tion or the “Fort”, have result- ed in a number of impo: t developments Firstly, the Federal and Pro- vincial Governments have re. Stored some of the fort build- ings and the palisade exactly as they existed at the time of British Columbia’s birth.

Incidentally, Douglas Day, 1958, is being celebrated on the IBist birthday of the building of the first fort by James Mc- Millan in 1827.
