Lindsay, Bobcaygeon and Pontypool.—A deputation, chiefly from the Lindsay district, waited on the Ontario Government, Feb. 13, in reference to this line, which it is proposed to build from Burketon, on the Montréal-Toronto line of the C.P.R., to Lindsay. The line has a Dominion subsidy of $3,200 a mile & municipal bonuses aggregating about $100,000. The cost of construction is estimated at $600,000, and the Co. wants to issue bonds for about $400,000, the interest on which it is desirous the Ontario Government should guarantee. (Jan., pg. 16.)
