In this matter I voted as I always have to protect the taxpayers of the .township I represent and my reason in making this explanation throu- gh the press is that I did not have the details of the new agreement be- tween these municipalities and the City of Toronto, on nomination day. ' Sidewalks For Yonge Street Through the invitation of Hon. George S. Henry who is anxious to take care of pedestrain as welI as vehicular traffic on Yonge Street, Reeve Gohn, Reeve Kellam and Councillor Baker of Vaughan and my- self were in conference on the question of sidewalks and my suggestion at that time as on previous occasions was that the government assume a very considerable share of the cost, probably fifty per cent. and that the two interested municipalities bear the remaining cost of a cinder walk. My idea and I think that of the Minister is to have these in- expensive walks constructed both north and south of Thornhill and both north and south of Richmond Hill and Elgin Mills. In this pro- posed work we have the assurance of every assistance of the depart- ment engineers in laying out the work in the early spring as soon as conditions warrant that the operations Should commence. The cost to the municipalities of Markham and Vaughan will not be serious and I feellthat it willbe in the best interests of public safety and the preser- vation of life and limb.

Strangways, as- sisted by Rev. A. Boyle of St. Matt- hew’s Church Toronto, cousin of the deceased. Interment was in the fam- ily plot at Richmond Hill. In early life Mr. Boyle was true to the religious conviction of his nature and became an a tive and devout member of thg Presbyterian Church with which he went into Union contin- uing to find in the fellowship of the United Church much satisfaction tox the broad sympathies that character_ ized his life. Mr. Boyle was born seventyâ€"seven years ago at York Mills. From there his parents moved to East York and then to a farm to the south of Rich- mond Hill. While yet a young man he acquired a farm at Langstaff Where he conducted his business with great success until the year‘nineteen hundred and fourteen when he sold one of his farms and m'oved to Centre Street, Thornhill where he,has since resided enjoying a well-eamed rest- after many years of assiduous attent- ion to business. Shortly after moving 38 Langstaff he married Miss M. Morgan who with two daughters, Misses Agnes and Marguerite, and one son. Morgan, remains to mourn a nob- 1e husband and a devoted father.

Thanking you and wishing one and all the compliments of the season, In regard to new subâ€"divisions I wish to emphatically state thaf I am in favor of assisting not only one but all, under a local improve- ment plan. = I also might mention that in the year 1926 when the per diem al- lowance for County Councillors was increased from five to eight dolars per day I was the only member of the Markham Township Council to oppose it. action in regards to the grant given by the County Council this year to- wards the widening of the highway in Mimico and New Toronto. I wish to point out that these municipalities paid into the County treas- ury as their levy this year 334,751; they have neither a High School or a Continuation School and not one foot of County road and therefore do not receive any money back from the County of what they pay in. Out of the amount they are asked to pay annually this year they paid 320.571 for good roads alone. These munici- palities are showing remarkable growth and this year 1600 building permits were issued in Mimico which means that the amount to be col- lected by the County of York will continually grow. I think that the electors will agree with me that such municipalities are deserving of some consideration from the County Council. The Hamilton Highway along the Lake-Shore is a eighty foot roadway and through New To- ronto and Mimico this traffic which is unusually heavy is crowded on a twentyâ€"foot street. Something had to be done and an application for assistance was made to the County The finance committee could not agree on this proposed grant and it was opened to the entire council to decide. It was carried by the members of the County Council by,a vote of 37 for it and 20 against it. Almost two to one. I understand my opponent in this election claims that this should have been taken care of by the p ovince, but I would like.to point out that had the government built t is roadway the County of York would have been assessed for twentyâ€"five per cent. of the cost, with the grant of $50,- 000, which was given. the County paid seven per cent. of the cost. I ask you which was the better business on the part of this County? A portion of the fourth concession was added to the County sys- tem this year and I believe my opponent is endeavoring to take some of the credit for this. May I point out to the electors that Mr. Camp- bell was not even present in the hall when this clause was adopted by the council. Had a vote been taken he would not have even been pre- sent to cast his vote. Ladies and Gentlemen;â€"I 2 Deputy-Reeve for the year 1928 and influence.
