About the Book

Excerpt from Official Documents and Other Information Relating to the Improvement of the Ship Channel: Between Montreal and Quebec

The object inc'collecting and publishing the following docu ments and notes is to place before the public a connected account of the improvements in the ship channel of the St; Lawrence be tween Montreal and Quebec from the first attempts up to the pre sent day. An endeavour has been made to give the facts as much as practicable in detail, with but little comment, further than that necessarily made in introducing the several documents. These have been placed in the order of time, except in cases Where the sense or continuity is better preserved by a slight variation. The principal sources from Which information has been obtained are the Library of Parliament at Ottawa, printed reports of the Harbour Commissioners and printed correspond ence, all of Which no doubt are fully reliable. All the information obtainable and directly connected With the improvements from their beginning up to the yea1 1850 is given in detail, as it is of g1eat inte1est, and is not conveniently Within the 1each of the geneial public, being scatte1ed through the jou1nals of' the Legislative Assembly of Lower Canada p1ev1ously to 1841, and subsequently th1ough the records of the Parliaments of the United Canadas. After the year 1850, at Which date the Harbour Commissioners of Montreal were invested With the execution of the work the information obtainable is fuller and better connected, being embodied in their: reports and in the reports of the Department of Public Works. Of the period from 1850 to 1865, When the depth of 20 feet was attained, the account given here is not so much in detail as in the earlier stages, but sufficiently so to convey a clear account of the progress of the work. Since the renewal of Operations in 1874, the work has been conductei on a much more extensive scale than formerly, and full reports, Which may be obtained easily, have been issued annually. On this account, and in order to restrict the size of this pamphlet, only the main events in the history of the improvements since that time are given.
