ANOTHER OLD LANDMARK GONE
[Welland Telegraph, 25 September 1891]
The Board of Health was called together on Monday night to receive the report of the medical health officer, Dr. Howell. In respecting the contents of the “frog hatchery.” The reports states most emphatically that the existence of such a place is highly dangerous in health, and strongly recommended that it be filled up at once. Some time ago the council had passed a resolution to the effect that if the evidence did not abate the nuisance it should be done at town expense and charged up against the property. At the board meeting on Monday night the council was recommended to carry out their resolution, which has been done, and now, no more will the sweet effluvia of the still green waters be wafted on the breeze, no more will the bullfrog’s tuneful voice echo from the depths, and suffering humanity can once more breathe a little fresh air.
