Biographical notes:

In 1831, shortly after the Anti-Masonic Convention held in Halifax, Mass., plans for establishing a "free press" in Plymouth County, Mass., were begun by Nathan Lazell (1796-1835), Samuel Breck (1771-1862), and Nahum Stetson (1807- ). By October 1832 the first issue of this anti-masonic newspapers was published under the name "We, the People and Old Colony Press," and it continued to be published weekly until the end of 1834.
