A NEW REAL ESTATE DEAL
Settlement of 2000 to Locate Here
[People’s Press, 12 March 1912]
Rumor from a hidden although vouched for source stated on Monday morning that arrangements had been made by a Toronto real estate firm to open a settlement of Scandinavians on the Asher farm just east of Welland.
The report was that workmen’s homes worth $1500 are to be built and two thousand Swedes and Norwegians are to be brought to this country to settle there. Seven hundred dollars will be advanced for their passage to Welland, which with the cost of their homes, they will have to pay back to the real estate company.
No positive authority could be obtained for the report.
