De Cosmos was born William Alexander Smith in 1825 in Wind- ‘sor, Nova Scotia, of. English loyal: ist stock. Lured west by gold rush tales, he was a photographer and a miner in Utah and California before coming to Victoria in 1858. He had adopted his romantic name Che translated it as ‘lover of the world’) in California where it was authenticated by the legislature, and if was soon well-known. He founded a newspaper, the British Colonist, and immediately cam. Paigned for an end to compar:7 rule, Governor James Douglas tried to sGppress the paper.
