BC Historical Newspapers
The Ladysmith Daily Ledger was published in Ladysmith, in the Cowichan Valley region of Vancouver Island, and ran from July 1903 to December 1906. Ladysmith developed as a residential area for the employees of a large coal mine, and, in 1904, it had a population of approximately 4000. The Ledger was published by the Ladysmith Publishing Company, which also issued the paper under two variant titles: the Daily Ledger (April to July, 1905) and the Ladysmith Ledger (September to December, 1906).
