Excerpt from A Chapter of the Municipal History of Ottawa
In reply to your letter of the 27th instant, re agreement between the Corporation of the City of Ottawa and this company, I may say that at the time of completing the agreement the question came up as to the payment of supplies purchased since April 3oth. While negotiations were going on it was of course necessary for this Company to purchase from time to time supplies necessary for the carrying on of the business and the under standing was that this item was to be adjusted at the time of final taking over of the plant by the city. The words inserted which you refer to were put in by the consent of the Mavor to provide for the proper adjustment of the stock.
We have just had completed a full statement of stock on hand and find there is in ual use at the present time supplies to the value of which is in excess of what we were to hand over to the city under the agreement.
I may say that the other supplies are all necessary for the city to have on hand and we would be pleased to have you check it over and advise us if you wish to purchase same, which we will turn over to you at cost.
