清代噶瑪蘭廳的建置 陳進傳 宜蘭技術學院 人文及科學教育中心教授 摘 要 清嘉慶十七年（1812 ）雖是噶瑪蘭廳公認的建置年代，但翻閱文獻時，又有嘉 慶十五年與十六年的說法，不禁令人困惑。因此，這個長期以來的公案，值得探討， 亟待釐清，以釋疑義。 噶瑪蘭原為化外之地，後來墾民大量移入，拓地日廣，進展順利，凡此成為設 廳的背景。在此基礎上，雖然楊廷理倡議將噶瑪蘭收歸版圖，有識之士，亦申述建 置理由，但上司以地屬偏遠而被駁回。復經多次上書，終獲同意。然籌設過程曾遭 停頓，有所延宕，但由於認真實地勘查，詳細劃定章程，總算圓滿達成任務。 經深入探討後，噶瑪蘭廳的建置年代，十分明確，就是嘉慶十五年奏請，嘉慶 十六年十月批准，嘉慶十七年八月正式設官治理。但設廳之初，卻發生極為罕見的 事件，即誰是首任通判？誠為宜蘭史上的重大疑案，本文亦根據史料，加以稽考， 以澄清真相。 關鍵詞：清代、噶瑪蘭廳、建置、楊廷理 The Establishment of Kehma-lan Ting ( County ) in Ching Dynasty Chinn-chuan Chen Professer, Center for Liberal Arts and Science Education National Ilan Institute of Technaloge Abstract It is generally acknowledged that Kehma-lan Ting (County) was established in the 17th year of Chia-ching in Ching Dynasty (1812). However it is rather puzzling that in some historical documents, the year is stated to be the 15th year or the 16th . The case, waiting to be cleared up for a long time, is considered a worthwhile study. Kehma-lan, an uncivilized region in the early period, was turned into a new colony after the huge migration of planters from China, who opened up considerable area of land. With steady advance of development, the settlement had reached into a community good enough for a ting (county). Yang Ting-li saw this and proposed that Kehma-lan be officially incorporate into China, and the literate men with vision also gave reasons for it. However, the proposal was rejected on account of Kehma-lans being far and remote. After repeated submissions, the Ching authority finally consented to the proposal. With thorough investigation and elaborate plan for rules and regulations, Keh
