THE WARDEN'S REPLY TO
MR. T. McMICt3AEL.
i
LETTER NO .
r2 the Editor of the Iauron'1xpositor.-
SIR,—I.. see '}y the Huron Exposi-
tor of 3rd inst., that Mr. McMichael
has again returned to the charge
against the grasping Town of God-
erich in hip usual unfair style of
argument, which I shall endeavor to
show before I finally close this con-
troversy with him. But,Sir,asit will
take considerable time and research
to arrive at the proper data, to show
the true position of the financial af-
0
fairs as between the Town of °Goder-
ich and the County of Huron. _ I
shall in this communication : only
touch upon a few- of the material
points at issue, on which we entire-
ly disagree. I shall first commence
with tho expenditure on the Mait-
land Bridge. A By -low was passed
by the United Counties of Huron.
and Bruce, in 4. D. 1853, to raise
the sum of $22,500, for the purpose
of erecting, a Suspension Bridge.
But, Sir, after the contract was .let
for the erection of said bridge, and
two of the abutments completed, and -
the necessary iron and wire bought
and paid for, . doubts began to arise
as to the sufficiency of the . plan
adopted by the Council for this Sus-
pension Bridge. These doubts grew
so strong that D. 11: Ritchie, Esq.;
the then County Clerk, was sent off
post haste to get the opinion of;
Messrs. Robeling and Buchanan, the
eminent Engineers who built the
Railway Suspension Bridge across
the Niagara River.1 These gentle-
men after Irefully (examining the
plans, declared then to be wholly
unfit- for the purpose (intended, and
finally condeni ed th m in toto. On
their opinion. being obtained the
_ work was stopped and finally aban-
doned here. 44l1ow me in the most
positive .terms tostate than over
$10,000 of the above sum was wholly
lost to the Counties by blundering
and mismanagement of an incompe-
tent Engineer emFloyed by the
Counties, and for proof of the above
statement, I refer my friend to •
Messrs. Holmes and Richie, who
were connected with she Council
throughout the whole transaction:
As this is one of the material points
at issue,:I would ask my worthy
friend to apply -to those gentlemen
as . to the correctnes of the above
statements. On the stoppage of the
work an arbitration was entered into
between the contractors and the-
countes as they could not agree on
the amount of damages to. be allow-
ed, and also a dispute arose about
the price of the abutments built,
-and the material on hand ; those
were the chief, points put into the
submission for - the arbitration to
consider. The contractors knew
their case was a good one as against
the- Counties,, as they alleged that it
was by no fault of theirs that the work
was stopped. I have no doubt. a
large amount of damages was allow-
ed, but, Sir, up to the present time
I have been unable to' discover 'any=
tiding about this matter in the Min-
uees of Council. This ranch I do
know -that an arbitration was held
and an award made, but the amount
allowed appears to be a mystery.
After this matter was closed, plans
and specifications were advertised.
for, for the erection of a wooden
bridge, leaving the people North . of
the Maitlad and the County of
Bruceforonotlher year to get over
the river as best ,they could. The
plansand specifications and tender
of Mellish and Russel were accepted!

,000, more : than
t. Npw, Sir, I
for the '•buildin of a Howes Truss'
bridge, and so far as aay memory
serves Nie the price was $16,000—
they have the benefit of the ab�ut-
ments already b u ilt,egtimated by _them
to be -worth about $i4,000,making cost
of the bridge that was really buil t,
$20,000. Hence my Statement in
my first reply, that Mr. McMichael's
figures were incorrect and not true,
notwithstanding his . having obtain-
ed them in a letter from our respect-
ed County Cleik, and his threat if 1
deny thetnagain,.to publish thij let-
ter.. After these explanations if it
suits n y friend's purpose he has my
permission to publish it a thousand
times over. After the bridge was
built and fr ished, and after the posi-
tive squandering of a large amount
of the first :gum raised for this par-
pose,
rur 1
pose, a further stun of $9,788 wa i;
raised by .lirept ,ta.xation by the
United' Counties to pay up -in full
the cost of .aid bridge. And here I l
would ask my worthy friend ass I
matter of j u tice and fair play to the
Town and Townships north of the
Maitland, to deduct from the sum of
$32,2638 which 1_e alleges the. Mail;
hind bridge cost, and, �vinch I deny,
the amount the County of Bruce
paid which was $10,762.. Also the:
:trhrount lost through blundering, say
$10,000 more, leaving the skim of
11,52E to be charged to the debit
of the Town of Goderich, and the
Townships of Colborne, Ashfield
and Wawanosh. These being the
31unicipaiities which participated
and were immediately benefitted by
the construction of the .'Northern
Gravel Roads. In my worthy
