BILL 

An    Act   respecting   the     Sisters   Adorers     of    the 
Precious    Blood    of   Ottawa. 

WHEREAS  the  Sisters  Adorers  of  the  Precious  B]ood^^ea"^^i«- 
of  Ottawa  has  represented  by  its  petition  that  it  is  a 
corporation  duly  incorporated  without  share  capital,  under  " 
The  Ontario  Companies  Act,  by  Letters  Patent  dated  the 
16th  day  of  February,  A.D.  1909,  for  the  following  purposes, 
namely:  {a)  To  establish,  maintain  and  carry  on  an  associa- 
tion or  community  for  the  purpose  of  divine  worship,  piety, 
mercy  and  charity,  consistent  with  a  contemplative  life;  (6) 
To  purchase,  acquire,  hold,  lease,  accept  and  receive  under 
any  legal  title,  personal  property  of  any  kind  whatsoever  for 
the  said  purposes;  (c)  To  borrow  for  the  purposes  of  the  cor- 
poration ;  {d)  To  found,  establish  and  maintain  in  the  said 
Province  of  Ontario,  monasteries,  novitiates  and  branches ; 
aud  (e)  To  provide  or  establish  private  burying  places  for 
the  deceased  members  of  the  association;  and  whereas  the 
said  petition  further  represents  tliat  the  monastery  is  chiefly 
maintained  by  charitable  donations  from  friends  of  the  insti- 
tution and  voluntary  contributions  from  those  who  attend 
the  church  or  chapel  attached  to  the  institution;  that  the 
Sisters  also  make  objects  of  piety  and  church-ware  and  that 
the  sale  of  these  articles  supplements  to  some  extent  charitable 
donations  as  a  source  of  revenue,  but  that  a  large  quantity  of 
the  articles  so  made  are  given  away  gratis  to  those  who  have 
not  the  means  to  pay  for  them  as  well  as  to  others ;  that  an 
important  portion  of  the  work  of  the  Sisters  is  in  relieving 
the  wants  of  the  sick  and  poor  and  that  during  the  year  large 
numbers  of  persons  visit  the  monastery  seeking  relief  and  are 
afforded  it  and  that  certain  of  the  Sisters  who  are  dispensed 
from  the  rule  requiring  the  community  to  live  cloistered, 
spend  their  time  in  visiting  the  sick  in  their  homes,  and  in 
these  ways  the  Sisters  dispense  during  the  year  considerable 
Slims  of  money  in  cash  and  also  relief  in  kind  tO'  a  very  much 
larger  extent  and  that  in  addition  to  these  other  good  works, 
persons  requiring  spiritual  consolation  are  received  in  the 
monastery  from  time  to  time  for  temporary  residence  and 
spiritual  relief;  that  moreover  a  school  is  maintained  in 
2    ^ 


connection  with  the  monastery  in  which  persons  intending 
to  enter  the  Order  are  given  clerical  and  religious  instruc- 
tion ;  and  whereas,  by  reason  of  the  work  which  the  corpora- 
tion is  carrying  on,  the  corporation  has,  by  its  said  petition, 
prayed  for  the  passing  of  an  Act  providing  that  the  buildings 
of  the  corporation  and  the  land  whereon  the  same  are  erected, 
and  which  are  used  in  connection  therewith,  situated  within 
the  City  of  Ottawa,  so,  long  as  the  same  are  occupied  by  and 
used  for  the  corporation,  shall  be  exempt  from  taxation; 
and  whereas  it  is  expedient  to  grant  the  prayer  of  the  said 
petition: 


Exemption 
of  property 
from 
taxation. 


Private 
burying: 
place  not 
affected. 


Therefore,  His  Majesty,  by  and  with  the  advice  and  con- 
sent of  the  Legislative  Assembly  of  the  Province  of  Ontario, 
enacts  as  follows : — 

1.  The  buildings  of  the  Sisters  Adorers  of  the  Precious 
Blood  of  Ottawa,  and  the  lands  whereon  the  same  i&re 
erected,  and  which  are  used  in  connection  therewith,  situ- 
ated within  the  City  of  Ottawa,  so  long  as  the  same  are 
occupied  and  used  for  the  purposes  of  the  corporation,  shall 
be  exempt  from  taxation. 


2.   This  provision  shall  not  apply  to  any 
connection  with  the  private  burying  place.

BILL 


An  Act  respecting  the  City  of  Toronto. 

W  lip]  RE  AS  the  Corporation  of  the  City  of  Tomiito  has,  Preamble, 
by  petition,  prayed  for  special  Iciiislation  in  respect 
of  the  several  matters  hereinafter  s(  t  forth ;  and  whereas  i 
the  said  corporation,  at  the  general  expense  and  with  tlie 
assent  of  the  electors,  established  and  has  operated  for  about 
ten  years  sewage  disposal  works  for  the  interception  and 
purification  of  the  sewage  of  the  saiil  corporation,  but  did 
not  pass  a  by-law  for  the  establishment  of  the  said  works,  as 
required  by  The  Municipal  Act;  and  whereas  it  is  desirable 
to  sanction  the  said  establishment  and  operation  of  the  said 
works  and  to  grant  other  relief  with  reference  thereto;  and 
whereas,  to  enable  the  said  cor])oration  more  readily  and 
])rofitably  to  dispose  of  debentures,  it  is  desirable  that  the 
by-laws  specified  in  Schedule  "  A  "  hereto  should  be  con- 
firmed ;  and  whereas  no  objections  have  been  made  to  any 
of  the  said  by-laws,  and  no  opposition  has  been  offered  to 
the  confirmation  of  the  same;  and  whereas  it  is  desirable  to 
grant  special  powers  to  the  said'  corporation  as  to  the  plant- 
ing, trimming,  care  of  and  removal  of  trees  for  ornamental  ' 
])urposes  in  the  highways  of  the  said  cor])oration ;  and 
Avhereas  it  is  desirable  to  validate  certain  sales  of  lands  for 
arrears  of  taxes,  and  to  remove  any  doubts  that  may  arise 
as  to  the  validity  thereof;  and  whereas  it  is  desirable  to 
impose  certain  restrictions  upon  the  subdivision  of  vacant 
lands  in  the  said  municipality  with  reference  to  the  cost  of 
local  improvements  and  other  public  services,  a  large  part 
of  which  would  fall  upon  the  general  ratepayers  of  the 
municipality;  and  whereas  large  tracts  of  land  of  adjoining 
municipalities  are  from  time  to  time  annexed  to  the  said 
municipality,  which  obtain  special  advantages  as  to  sewer 
outlets  without  sharing  any  part  of  the  cost  thereof,  and  it 
is  desirable  to  grant  special  powers  to  recover  a  part  of  the 
cost  thereof  from  the  owners  of  such  lands  upon  annexation 
thereof  to  the  said  municipality;  and  whereas  the  said  cor- 
poration  has,    at   great  cost   and    expense,    established    and 

maintains  a  system  of  sewers,  interceptinc;  sewers  and  scav- 
5  ■ 


age  disposal  works  whicli,  owing  to  the  rapid  growth  of  the 
said  corporation,  threaten  to  become  inadequate  to  provide 
for  the  needs  of  the  said  municipality ;  and  whereas  the  said 
system  and  works  cannot  be  further  burdened  with  the  care 
of  sewage  from  lands  without  the  borders  of  the  said  muni- 
(•ij)ality;  and  whereas,  under  section  2  of  an  Act  passed  by 
this  Legislature  in  the  fifth  year  of  His  Majesty's  reign,  an 
obligation  was  cast  upon  the  said  municipality  to  allow  the 
Township  of  Y<>rk  to  connect  all  sewers  then  existing,  or 
which  might  thereafter  be  constructed  in  the  Township  of 
York,  to  the  sewer  system  of  the  said  municipality;  and 
whereas  it  is  desirable  that  the  ratepayers  of  the  said  muni- 
cipality should  not  be  further  burdened  with  this  obligation, 
and  that  the  said  Act  should  be  repealed ;  and  whereas  it  is 
expedient  to  grant  the  prayer  of  the  said  petition : 

Therefore,  His  Majesty,  by  and  with  the  advice  and 
consent  of  the  Legislative  Assembly  of  the  Province  of 
Ontario,  enacts  as  follows: —

interest  in  any  year  shall  be  equal  as  nearly  as  may  be  to  that 
required  in  any  other  year; 

And  whereas  it  will  require  the  sum  of  $15,278.07  to  be  raised 
anjiually  during  the  said  period  of  thirty  years  by  special  rates 
sufficient  therefor  over  and  above  and  in  addition  to  all  other  rates

insurance  on  the  said  factory,  by  interim  monthly  advances  of 
seventy  per  cent,  of  the  amount  expended  on  restoration  or  re- 
pairs, and  shall  receive  the  balance  of  said  insurance  money  when

Whereas  J.  W.  Hewetson  Company,  Limited,  has  entered  '• '^  "iP 
agreement  with  the  Corporation  of  the  Town  of  Orangevi 
in  Schedule  "A"  hereto, "which  is  hereby  incorporated  in  ......  ..^  t" 

be  read  and  construed  as  part  of  this  by-law; 

And  whereas  it  is  advisable  upon  tlie  said  J.  W.  Hewetson  Com 
pany,  Limited,  complying  with  the  terms,  provisions  and  MMuiiiion.^ 
of  the  said  agreement  on  its  part  to  be  performed  prior  to  ih< 
grant  of  such  bonus  by  way  of  loan  that  the  C/Orpoiation  of  tin 
Town  of  Orangevllle  should  grant  to  the  said  J.  W.  Hewet^ou 
Company,  Limited,  a  bonus  by  way  of  loan  of  the  sum  of  $30,000 
in  two  sums  of  $15,000  each  as  in  the  said  agreement  provided: 

And  whereas  in  order  to  i)rovide  the  said  bonus  by  way  of  loan  it 
will  be  necessary  to  issue  debentures  of  the  said  municipality  for 
two  sums  of  $15,000  each  as  herein  provided  (which  is  the  amount 
of  the  debt  intended  to  be  created  by  this  by-law)  the  jirocoeds  of 
the  said  debentures  to  i)e  applied  for  the  purpose  aforesaid  and  to 
no  other  and  the  said  debentures  shall  be  payable  as  hereinafter

of  $15,000  within  five  years  after  the  final  passing  of  this  l)y-lav.. 
and — it  being  in  the  opinion  of  the  Municipal  Corporation  of  the 
said  Town  of  Orangevllle.  undesirable  to  have  large  portions  of  tlie 
money  to  be  raised  under  this  by-law  in  hand  unused  and  unin- 
vested— it  would  be  to  the  advantage  of  the  muni<ipality  to  issue

installment  of  the  debt  thereby  respectively  secured  together  with 
the  interest  thereon  being  made  payable  in  equal,  annual  install- 
ments extending  over  twenty  years  from  the  date  of  the  issue  of 
the  debentures  respectively  representing  the  same; 

And  whereas  it  is  desirable  to  make  the  principal  of  the  .said 
debentures  payable  by  yearly  sums  during  the  period  of  twenty 
years  after  the  issue  of  each  installment  being  the  currency  of  the 
said  debentures  said  yearly  sums  being  of  such  respective  aniounls 
that  the  aggregate  amount  payable  each  year  for  princii)al  and 
interest  in  respect  of  the  said  debt  shall  be  as  nearly  as  possible 
equal  to  the  amount  so  payable  in  each  of  the  other  nineteen  years 
of  said  period; 

And  whereas  the  total  amount  required  hy  The  Mufii<i]>al  Act  to 
be  raised  annually  during  the  first  of  such  periods  of  twenty  years 
for  paying  the  first  installment  of  the  said  debt  and  interest 
thereon  is  $1,307.77  and  during  the  second  of  such  periods  of 
twenty  years  for  paying  the  second  installment  of  said  debt  and 
interest  thereon  is  $1,307.77; 

And  whereas  the  amount  of  the  whole  rateable  property  of  the 
Town  of  Orangeville  according  to  the  last  revised  assessment  roll 
thereof  is  $986,095; 
18

And  whereas  the  amount  of  the  existing  debenture  debt  of  the 
said  municipality  is  the  sum  of  $94,867.31  whereof  no  principal  or 
interest  is  in  arrear; 

And  whereas  there  is  at  present  no  shoe  factory  in  the  said  Town 
of  Orangeville;

A  by-law  to  provide  for  borrowing  $40,000  upon  debentures  to 
pay  for  the  floating  indebtedness  of  the  Corporation. 

Whereas  the  Corporation  owes  a  floating  indebtedness  of  $40,000, 
which  has  existed  for  many  years,  and  it  is  desirable  to  make 
proper  provision  for  payment  and  redemption  of  same  by  borrowing 
the  sum  of  $40,000  upon  debentures  of  fhe  Corporation; 

And  whereas  the  Council  deems  it  expedient  for  sucfh  purpose  to

to  be  created  by  this  by-law,  payable  as  hereinafter  mentioned,  and 
to  provide  for  payment  of  the  same  within  twenty  years  from  the 
date  thereof  with  interest  thereon  at  the  rate  of  six  per  centum 
I)er  annum  payable  half  yearly; 

And  whereas  it  Is  deemed  expedient  to  make  the  principal  of  the 
said  debt  repayable  in  yearly  sums  during  the  period  of  twenty 
years  of  such  amounts  respectively  that  the  aggregate  amount  pay- 
able for  principal  and  interest  in  any  year  shall  be  equal  as  nearly 
as  may  be  to  the  amount  so  payable  for  principal  and  interest  in 
each  of  the  other  years; 

And  whereas  it  will  be  necessary  to  raise  annually  the  sum  of 
$3,487.39  during  the  period  of  twenty  years  to  pay  the  said  yearly 
sums  of  principal  and  interest  as  they  become  due  by  a  special  rate

of  any  statutes  of  the  Province  of  Ontario,  is  not  to  be  reckoned 
as  part  of  the  indebtedness  of  the  said  Corporation  for  the  purpose

the  Bank  of  Hamilton  by  the  said  Village  of  Grimsby,  the  sum  of 
$4,801; 

And  whereas  in  addition  to  the  above-mentioned  sums  there  were 
other  liabilities  of  the  said  Village  of  Grimsby  outstanding  includ- 
ing the  sum  of  $2,000  due  and  owing  to  the  Water  Works  Commis- 
sion of  the  said  Village  of  Girimsby  for  the  payment  of  which  said 
sums  the  Council  of  the  said  Village  of  Grimsl^'  did  not  levy 
sufficient  moneys; 

And  whereas  it  would  be  unduly  oppressive  to  the  ratepayers  of 
the  said  Village  of  Grimsby  to  pay  all  the  outstanding  liabilities 
of  the  said  village  at  one  time  in  addition  to  the  meeting  of  the 
necessary  annual  expenses  of  the  said  corporation; 

And  whereas  the  Municipal  Council  of  the  Village  of  Grimsby 
deem  it  expedient  to  issue  debentures  for  the  sum  of  $15,000  to 
provide  moneys  for  the  payments  of  the  amounts  above-mentioned; 

And  whereas  it  is  desirable  to  issue  the  debentures  at  one  time 
and  to  make  the  principal  of  the  said  debt  repayable  by  yearly  sums 
during  the  period  of  fifteen  years,  being  the  currency  of  the  said 
debentures,  said  yearly  sums  being  of  such  respective  amounts  that 
the  aggregate  amount  payable  in  each  year  for  principal  and  in- 
terest shall  be  as  nearly  as  possible  equal  to  the  amount  payable  in 
each  of  the  other  fourteen  years  of  the  said  period  as  shown  by 
Sch^edule  "A"  hereunto  annexed; 

And  whereas  the  total  amount  required  to  be  raised  annually  by 
the  said  municipality  by  special  rate  for  the  paying  of  the  said  debt 
and  interest,  as  hereinafter  provided,  is  $1,544.44; 
22 


And  whereas  the  amount  of  the  whole  rateable  property  of  the 
Village  of  Grimsby,  according  to  the  last  revised  assessment  roll  is 
?976,374; 

And  whereas  the  amount  of  the  existing  debenture  debt  of  the 
said  municipality  exclusive  of  local  improvement  is  $116,809.49,  of 
which  no  part  either  principal  or  interest  is  in  arrears; 

Now,  therefore,  the  Municipal  Council  of  the  Municipal  Corpora- 
tion of  the  Village  of  Grimsby  enacts  as  follows: 

1.  The  Municipal  Corporation  of  the  Village  of  Grimsby  shall

BILL 

An  Act  respecting  the  Town  of  Dundas 

WJlI^:iiKAS  the  Corporation  of  the  Town  of  Dundas  has, Preamble

tion that  the  water  mains  in  the  said  town  are  in  many  cases 
Jaid  along  property,  the  owners  of  whi«h  do  not  tal^e  water 
or  pay  anything  to  the  revenue  of  the  water  works  or  the 
sinking  funds  or  interest  on  the  debentures  issued  by  the 
nmuicipality  therefor,  although  such  properties  are  increased 
in  value  thereby,  and  that  in  consequence  thereof  the  rev- 
enue derived  from  the  general  water  rates  is  less  than  it 
otherwise  should  be  and  that  there  is  now  no  effective  way 
of  charging  any  unpaid  special  rates  against  the  properties 
benefited  by  mains  and  have  requested  the  council  to  obtain 
legislation  to  authorize  the  Water  Commissioners  to  levy  and 
collect  the  rate  upon  all  properties  fronting  on  streets,  lanes 
and, alleys  along  which  water  mains  are  laid,  and  to  provide 
that  all  special  rates  shall  be  a  lien  on  all  properties  served 
with  mains  and  with  the  right  of  distress  and  sale  of  said 
lands  as  in  the  case  of  taxes  in  arrears  and  unpaid,  and  the 
said  council  request  that  such  legislation  be  granted,  and 
whereas  it  is  expedient  to  grant  the  prayer  of  the  said 
petition : 

Therefore,  His  Majesty,  by  and  with  the  advice  and  con- 
sent of  the  Legislative  Assembly  of  the  Province  of  Ontario, 
enacts  as  follows : — 

1.  Subject  to  section  2,  the  Water  Commissioners  of  thcSpec^iai^

said  municipality  upon  which  water  mains,  from  which  the 
commissioners  are  willing  to  supply  water,  are  laid,  which

be  kept  open  until  five  o'clock  in  the  afternoon  of  the  same 
.day;  and  by  subsection  2  provides  that  the  council  of  the 
city  may,  by  by-law  passed  before  the  15th  day  of  IN'ovember 
in  any  year,  extend  the  time  for  keenine:  open  the  polls  until 
seven  o'clock  in  the  afternoon ;  and  whereas,  owing  to  the 
largely  increased  number  of  voters  upon  the  voters'  list  ol 
the  polling  subdivisions  within  the  City  of  Brantford  it  was 
deemed  necessary  to  keep  the  polls  open  until  seven  o'clock 
in  the  afternoon  at  the  annual  municipal  elections  for  the 
year  1919;  and  whereas  By-law  TSTo.  1498  of  the  Corpora- 
tion of  the  Citv  of  Brantford  was  passed  for  such  purpose 
on  the  twenty-third  day  of  December,  1918,  and  by  inad- 
vertancf  such  by-law  was  not  passed  before  the  fifteenth  day 
of  IN'ovember  as  renuired ;  and  whereas  the  Corporation  of 
the  City  of  Brantford  desires  power  to  appoint  three  addi- 
tional members  to  the  Board  of  Park  Management  for  the 
Citv  of  Brantford,  so  that  such  board  will  copcict  of  three 
additional  members;  and  whereas  the  Corp'tntidii  of  the 
City  of  Brantford  desires  power  to  appoint  three  additional 
members  to  the  Board  of  Health  for  the  Citv  of  Brantford, 
so  that  such  board  shall  consist  of  three  additional  members ; 
and  whereas  the  cost  of  sanitary  sewers  and  of  storm  sewers 
in  the  City  of  Brantford  has  been  provided  for  heretofore 
by  levying  a  uniform  frontage  rate  of  ten  cents  per  lineal 
foot  upon  the  property  liable  to  be  assessed  therefor  during 
Ihe  period  of  twenty  years  under  the  provisions  of  chanter 
48  of  the  Acts  passed  in  the  fifth  year  of  the  reign  of  His 
Afajesty  King  George  the  Fifth,  and  the  said  sum,  owing 
to  the  increased  cost  of  labour  and  materials  and 
the  increased   rate  of  interest,   has  become  insufficient  to 

provide  the  cost  thereof;   and  whereas  it  is  desirable  to 
36 


provide  a  maximum  rate  for  sanitar)'  and  storm  sewers  in 
the  City  of  Brantford  to  be  levied  during  a  uniform  period ; 
and  whereas  it  is  expedient  to  grant  the  prayer  of  said

BILL 


An  Act  incorporating  the  Town  of  York. 

WHEREAS  the  Corporation  of  the  Township  of  York i'^«a'«t)ie. 
has,  hy  petition,  represented  that  the  township  has  a 
f)opiilation  of  about  35,000,  and  that  it  is  steadily  increasing; 
that  the  southern  portion  of  the  said  township,  which  lies 
alonp:  the  northern  limit  of  the  City  of  Toronto  is  closely 
built  up  and  is  entirely  urban  and  contains  a  large  number 
of  manufacturing  industries,  which  employ  many  hundreds 
of  workmen,  while  the  north  portion  of  the  said  municipality 
is  almost  entirely  a  farming  community  and  the  inhabitants 
arc  interested  in  rural  occupations  and  pursuits;  that  owing 
to  its  location,  the  southern  part  of  the  township  drains 
naturally  through  the  City  of  Toronto  to  Lake  Ontario, 
and  that  the  City  of  Toronto  has  refused  to  allow  the  said 
township  to  connect  its  sewers  with  those  of  the  City  of  To- 
ronto, thus  causing  a  condition  which  is  exceedingly  danger- 
ous to  the  health  of  the  inhabitants  of  that  portion  of  the 
township:  and  whereas  it  has  further  been  represented  that 
the  Board  of  Education  of  the  City  of  Toronto  has  erected 
schools  in  the  said  township  without  the  consent  of  the  town- 
ship school  bonrds.  which  has  caused  friction  and  dissatis- 
fnctiou  because  nupils  residinjr  in  the  toAvnship  are  not 
allowed  to  attend  these  schools;  and  whereas  it  is  desirable  in 
the  interests  of  public  health  nnd  convenience  that  systems 
of  water  works,  seworaffe  nnd  liG'htinar  should  be  established 
for  the  southern  portion  of  the  township  in  which  the  northern 
portion  is  not  interested :  nnd  wherens  it  has  been  found 
thnt  there  is  nreat  difficulty  in  enualizinff  the  value  of  the 
urban  land  and  the  farmin«r  land  in  the  said'  townshin;  and 
whereas  the  value  of  the  whole  rateable  property  in  the  said 
tn^vusbip.  accordinf  to  the  last  lY'vised  assessment  roll,  is 
.t24.oof;.5T<>.00:  and  whereas  it  is  believed  that  the  jjeneral 
interests  of  the  township  as  a  whole,  as  well  as  of  the  southerly 
nart  thereof,  would  be  better  served  and  the  enforcement  of 
law  and  order  more  systematically  and  efficiently  earned  out 
if  the  southern  poT^inn  of  the  said  townshio  was  incorporated 
as  a  tovtm  ;  and  whereas  the  said  township  has.  by  its  petition.

BILL 


An  Act  respecting  the  Town  of  Oshawa. 

WHEREAS  the  Municipal  Corporation  of  the  Town  of  Preamble. 
Oshawa  has,  by  petition,  represented  that  By-law  No. 
56Y  of  the  said  corporation  was  ratified  and  confirmed  by 
chapter  86  of  the  Acts  passed  in  the  sixth  year  of  the  reign 
of  His  late  Majesty,  King  Edward  VIT ;  that  the  said  by- 
law provided  that  where  sewers  were  constructed  as  local 
improvements,  the  abutting  properties  should  pay  a  capital 
f'harge  of  eighty-five  cents  per  foot  frontage  in  thirty  equal 
annual  instalments  of  five  cents  per  foot  frontage ;  that  owing 
to  advances  in  the  general  rate  of  interest  it  is  impossible 
to  repay  the  said  capital  charge  of  eighty-five  cents  per 
foot  and  interest  by  an  annual  rate  of  five  cents  per  foot 
frontage  during  a  period  of  thirty  years;  that  since  the  said 
by-law  was  ratified  and  confirmed  by  the  said  Act  an  annual 
rate  of  five  cents  per  foot  frontage  during  the  period  of 
thirty  years  has  been  assessed  against  abutting  properties  to 
pay  for  sewers  constructed  in  the  said  town  as  local  im- 
provements; that  it  is  desirable  in  respect  of  sewers  here- 
after to  be  constructed  in  the  said  town  as  local  improve- 
ments that  the  abutting  properties  should  be  assessed  and 
pay  an  annual  rate  of  five  cents  per  foot  frontage  during 
a  period  of  thirty  years ;  that  it  is  accordingly  necessary 
to  repeal  the  said  By-law  No.  56Y  and  so  much  of  the  said 
statute  as  refers  to  said  by-law  and  that  authority  be  given 
to  the  said  town  to  pav  for  sewers  hereafter  to  be  constructed 
on  the  said  basis,  and  that  if  the  said  annual  rate  of  five 
rents  per  foot  frontacre  during  a  period  of  thirty  years 
should  produce  more  than  the  actual  cost  of  any  sewer,  the 
•surplus  should  be  used  by  the  said  town  for  general  sewerage 
purposes ;  and  whereas  it  is  expedient  to  grant  the  prayer

(80)  Where  hoisting  is  done  by  means  of  an  engine  an 
ade(]uate  brake  or  brakes  shall  bo  attached  to  the  drum  of 
the  hoist  and  kept  in  proper  working  order. 


Type  of 
brake. 


(81)  Such  brakes  shall  be  so  arranged  that,  whether  the 
engine  is  at  work  or  at  rest,  they  can  be  easily  and  safely 
manipulated  by  the  hoistraan  when  standing  at  the  levers 
controlling  the  engine.  No  hoist  used  for  the  raising  or 
lowering  of  persons,  or  used  in  •sinkiuL'-  oDfrations.  shall  be 
oqnij)p('<l    wiili   a  brako  or  brakes  a 

hoistman's  foot  unless  such  brake  is  an  auxiliary  electrical 
device.  The  adjustments  of  brake  or  brakes  shall  be  main- 
tained in  such  condition  that  when  the  normal  power  of  the

and  clutches  as  might  be  a  source  of  danger  in  the  event  of 
their  becoming  loosened  shall  be  rendlred  secure  by  means 
of  suitable  locking  devices. 

(84)  The  operator  of  a  hoisting  engine  shall  not,  after 
going  on  shift,  unclutch  a  drum  of  his  engine  until  he  has 
assured  himself  immediately  beforehand,  by  testing  the  brake 
of  the  drum  against  the  normal  starting  ]iower  of  the  engine, 
or  in  case  of  an  electric  hoist  against  the  normal  starting 
current,  that  the  brake  is  in  proper  condition  to  hold  the  load 
suspended  from  said  drum. 


Friction 
clutches. 


Auxlllarr 

brake 

required. 


(85)  When  the  hoisting  engines  are  fitted  with  friction 
clutches,  the  operator,  after  going  on  shift,  shall,  when 
clutching  in,  test  the  holding  power  of  the  clutch  before 
releasing  the  brake  of  the  corresponding  drum,  the  brake  of 
the  other  drum  being  kept  off.  In  case  of  a  steam  or  air 
hoist,  the  test  shall  be  made  against  the  normal  starting 
power  of  the  engine,  and  in  case  of  an  electric  hoist  against 
the  normal  starting  current. 

(86)  In  case  of  non-reversible  steam  or  air  hoists  and 
single-drum  electric  hoists,  not  used  in  balanced  hoisting, 
an  adequate  auxiliary  brake  shall  be  installed  on  the  drum

of  the  hoist  before  the  same  shall  be  used  for  hoisting  or 
lowering  men,  but  non-reversible  steam  or  air  hoists  with 
throttle-controlled  exhaust  shall  not  require  such  auxiliary    ■ 
brake. 

(87)   Every   hoisting  engine    shall,    in  addition    to    any  indicator 
marks  on  the  rope,  be  provided  with  a  reliable  depth  indi- 
cator, which  will  clearly  and  accurately  show  to  the  operator 
at  all  times: 

(1)  the  position  of  the  bucket,  cage  or  skip;  and 

(2)  at  what  positions  in  the  shaft  a  change  of  gradient 

necessitates  reduction  in  speed ; 

but  this  rule  shall  not  apply   to  hoisting  engines  used  inExemp- 
sinking  operations  when  the  hoistman  has  an  unobstructed 
view  of  the  landing  station  and  the  distance  from  the  landing 
station  to  the  bottom  of  the  shaft  do^  not  exceed  300  feet. 


(88)  In    every    shaft    exceeding    600    feet    in    depth  warning 
adequate  provision  shall  be  made  whereby  the  hoistman  is 
warned  of  the  arrival  of  the  bucket,  cage  or  skip  at  a  point 

in  the  shaft,  the  distance  of  which  from  the  top  landing 
place  is  not  less  than  the  equivalent  of  three  revolutions  of 
the  drum  of  the  hoisting  engine.  Such  device  shall  be  oper- 
ated independently  of  the  hoist  indicator.
