ANNEXATION OF CROWLAND IS “ALL OFF.”
[The Welland Telegraph, 27 February 1912]
Welland’s ambition to take in a section of the township of Crowland, from appearances at the present time, will end in a dismal failure.
W.M. German, town solicitor, is said to have informed the Mayor a few days ago that the proposition was “all off.” He did not make plain his real meaning, but it is obvious that the town’s aspirations are not to be crowned with success.
Another movement is on foot to form a police village, but the most likely thing to happen is that the town will take in the property of the township, this side of the railway tracks. Crowland has no objection to this procedure. Ald. McKay intends to bring it up at an early meeting of the Council.
