AMALGAMATION

[Welland Tribune, 6 July 1900]

The petition for the amalgamation of Humberstone and Port Colborne was ready for circulation on Wednesday. From the map attached we learn that about 500 acres will be taken into Port Colborne. Just what proceedings will be necessary to incorporate that amount of land into Port Colborne has not been decided, but it can certainly be done by getting a special act granting permission from the legislature. The petition will be circulated immediately.
