This was a holdover from when the Island had a bicameral legislature, the General Assembly and the Legislative Council. In 1893, the Legislative Council was abolished and had its membership merged with the Assembly, though the two titles remained separate and were elected by different electoral franchises. Assembleymen were elected by all eligible voters of within a district, while Councillors were only elected by landowners within a district.Driscoll Fred History and Politics of Prince Edward Island http://www.revparl.ca/11/2/11n2_88e_Driscoll.pdf Canadian Parliamentary Review Kings District Assemblyman Party Councillor Party 1st Kings     Augustine A.
