City of St Paul Incorporated 1854
In January the legislature (the Fifth territorial) assembled in the new capitol building for the first time. Ramsey county was represented by William P. Murray and Isaac Van Etten, in the council ; and William Noot, William A. Davis, Louis Bartlett, John H. Day and Levi Sloan, in the house.
Among the enactments of the session was a law approved March 3rd which incorporated
"Minnesota Royal Arch Chapter No. 1," of Free Masons, with A. T. C. Pierson, high priest ; Andrew G. Chatfield, king; George L. Becker, scribe; William H. Newton, Henry Morris, George W. Biddle, and James Y. Caldwell, trustees.
Another, approved March 4th chartered the St. Paul Bridge Company, with the following incorporators : Lyman Dayton, J. C. Ramsey, John R. Irvine, J. W. Bass, W. G. Le Due, W. R. Marshall, Joseph R. Brown, George L. Becker, William Ames, N. Myrick, A. L. Larpenteur, J. W. Simpson, C. H. Oakes, M. E. Ames and Louis Robert.
The rude forefathers of the hamlet were taken in hand by men of high ideals and masterly aims. They were guided and molded by Sibley and Rice and Kittson and Oakes and Borup and Steele and Forbes, who assumed the leadership. Their uncouth manners were smoothed out; their repellant proclivities were suppressed; their latent energies were directed into productive channels. The voyageurs and trappers and discharged soldiers were Americanized, and their descendants, including many with visible traces of a part Indian ancestry, are now among St. Paul's worthiest and most respected citizens.
