The report was adopted on motion
of Councillors Patterson and Spotton.
By-law No. 702 was laid over to be
disposed of at a special meeting of the
council held for that purpose when a
plan of the new dam with estimate of
cost would be furnished.
Councillors Binkley and Tipling
were asked to report ontheir findings
while looking into the cost of power at
Hanover, Mr, Hinkley stated that
while Wingham charged $40 per h. p.
for power Hanover charged only $25,
but generated by water, while we bad
to generate by steam at an actual cos
of $52,50 per h. p. if run entirely by
st'a. Hydro power sells for pecticdaily the same as Wingham charges
per horse power. Mr. Tipling said
that if Wingham would harness up
the water power that was wasted by
reconstructing the upper dam and in-
stalling a dynamo that we could gen-
erate power as oheaply as Hanover or
any other town, if we could run by
water power all the year round.
The Mayor called the attention of
the street committee to the fact that
one of the heavy timbers in the bridge
near the grist mill was broken. Chief
Allen also etatel that the flooring of
the mill dam had been ripped up with
the spring ice jam and would need to
be fixed before the cold weather.
Councillor Tipling promised that the
street committee would attend to harts
these repairs without delay,
An account from the Woodstock
General .Hospital for $15 for care of a
resident of Wingham during her sick-
ness was read and ordered paid on
motion of Councillors Binkley and
Garnet',
Reeve Mitchell drew the attention
of the council to the fact, that when
the collectors roll was handed in there
was something like $700 unpaid taxes,
and he thought there should be a re-
port of this presented to the council
with the names of those still in ar-
reare. He stated that if the parties
were unable to pay them it was no
disgrace, but if able they should be
made to. pay. The Mayor promised•
that the treasurer would be. asked to
present this report at the next meet.
ing,
Councillor Spotton was anxious to
eee the cinder sidewalk which was
suggested placed from the end of the
new cement sidewalk at Chas.
Elliott's corner the rest of the way to
the cemetery on the west side of the
road. He thought it was too bad that
there was no walk to the cemetery,
only on the dusty road or grass. Mov-
ed by Spotton and Tipling that the
property committee of this council
meet the Turnherry council and re -
guest graut for a sidewalk along the
road to the cemetery.—Carried.
Councillor Tipling said that water-
ing troughs for animals should be er-
ected and suggested that one be plac.
ed in front of the town hall. While
all the council was agreeable that they
were needed badly, several did not
like the idea of one being placed in
front of the hall. Reeve Mitchell said
it was a most necessary thing and if
only one foutstain was erected for
animals he favored It being. in front
of tho hall, but if two, ono a0a ascii end
of the Main St. The Matter was left
with the street and electric light and
water committee. Possibly the credit
for this humane and badly needed
move should be given to Mrs .A, R.
Wilford for erecting troughs at his
warehouse last week.
Town Oletk Groves stated that he
had been approached by Mr, George
McKenzie and asked if the town would
accept a square piano as a donation
from hien. Mr. McKenzie has held
most of the public offices( at the gift
of the people of %'Vinftham and as he
purposes moving from town in the
near future, he would like to have
some token of his esteem remain as a
retnembrance from him, Moved by
Spotton and Patterson that we accept
Mr. McKenzie's kind offer of a piano
on behalf of the town of Winghtttn,—
Carried.
Moved by Councillors Gurney and
Binkley that this counell do now ad-
journ to meet at 0 o'clock on Wednes•
