TIN ROOF A MISTAKE
This is Opinion Regarding the Court House
[Welland Tribune, 15 January 1914]
That the court house is to have a tin roof instead of the slate roof ordered by the county council is now settled apparently. Chairman Brookfield of the jail committee states that the contractor put all kinds of difficulties in the way of carrying out the orders of the council, increasing the extra price from $700 to over $1300 and then stating that he could not secure slate of an even thickness until spring. At the same time it is felt by many that the tin roof is a great mistake and that a slate roof should have been put on at any cost.
Mr. Clarke has agreed to replace a further portion of stone coping, over which there was a dispute.
