This article deals with the awarding the contract for the construction of the county building at Whitby and the separation of Georgina Town- ship from Ontario County. When the provisional county council met June 7, 1852, the bylaw to raise £6,000 for the county building was finally passed and the site agreed upon, The contract for the work was awarded to James Wallace, of Whitby. There was then a breathing spell, but only of short duration as it was discovered that Osh- awa as a municipality was not rated high enough in the aggre- gate assessment of the county upon which the rate was to be levied to pay for the debentures and interest on the £6,000. This, it was believed, would be fatal to the legality of the bylaw. ERROR IN AMOUNT Oshawa was rated at £61,666 instead of £92,500 the correct amount. The Oshawa represen- tative, who had fought against paying anything for erecting the county building at Whitby, now complained of fhe lightness of their taxes for that purpose, They had previously been tak» ing advantage of the error of under - valuation and paying Jess taxes than their just pro- portion in the United Counties Council. They had sought to take ad- vantage of their own wrong with a view to quashing the bylaw. G. H. Grierson got the credit for making the discovery of this legal point. The courts were resorted to but the attempt to quash the bylaw failed. At the Feb. 10, 1853, meeting of the provisional council T. N, Gibbs, reeve of Oshawa, was elected provisional warden. Residents of the northerly sec- tion of the county took excep- tion to certain of his remarks with the result that he resigned and James Rowe, reeve of Whit- by, was elected by the casting vote of the Township of Whitby, which had the largest number of names on its assessment roll, MUCH BITTERNESS The historians of that day re- call the proceedings in connec- tion with the organization of the new county were fraught by bitterness and the tenacity of purpose with which each inch of ground was fought by both sides. the press teemed with letters full of charges and counter charges impeaching the motives and actions of in- dividual members, Public meet- ings and demonstrations of all kinds were held to maintain the excitement. To be the county town was a prize worth fighting for and no representative could be blamed for doing his best to secure it for his own municipality. The claimants with Whitby were Brooklin, Manchester, Ux- bridge and Oshawa. With the publication of the proclamation appointing Whitby, all but Osh- awa succumbed. The latter fought it out as long as there was a hope led on by Messrs, 'COUNTY BUILDING CONTRACT AWARDED Gibbs, Farewell and Grierson. James Rowe's election to the wardenship was a bitter pill te swallow but it seemed to have the effect of bringing better understanding, as at the first meeting Mr, Gibbs voted with Joseph Gould of Uxbridge and Peter Taylor of Pickering against a_ resolution of the Georgina Township representa- tive which asked that no further action be taken on the con- Struction of the county building as it would be in the interests of the townships to remain part of York County. Georgina Township was not represented at the Mar, 23 meeting at Whitby, having ap- plied to the legislature for a special act to be reunited to York County. Mr. Hartman's presence helped to assure the passage of the act over the ob- jections of Ontario County. The construction of the county building progressed rapidly under Mr. Wallace's direction and on June 30, 1853 the corner- stone was laid.
