	Minnesota Prehistory
		The Minnesota Historical Society (MHS) is one of Minnesota’s oldest institutions, which was established on October 20, 1849, just seven months after the territory was established.
		It was organized by the Legislative Assembly of the Territory of Minnesota Laws on November 15, 1849, and elected future governor, Alexander Ramsey, as president.
		The doors and windows leading to the Society’s apartments were thrown open, and soon two or three score of men were busily engaged in carrying out armfuls of books and depositing them on the seats of the Universalistic church near by." The fire did destroy several thousand books, pamphlets, and newspapers.
