What the image shows
This is a typed page of text on aged, yellowed paper, with a heading reading "TO THE COMMISSIONERS AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL" above a salutation and several paragraphs of body text. It is a scanned speech or address, apparently by a newly inaugurated mayor, thanking the electors and the council members for their attendance at the inaugural meeting. The page shows a faint archive stamp in the bottom corner and a small handwritten mark at the top left.Described automatically by a vision model; may contain mistakes.
Text in the image
TO THE COMMISSIONERS AND MEMBERSOF THE CITY COUNCIL.GENTLEMEN,-In inaugurating this Council, as recently reconstituted by an Act of the Legislature of the Province of Quebec, my first duty is to thank the electors of the City of Montreal for the honor they have kindly done to me by electing me for a second time to the exalted position of first magistrate of the Canadian Metropolis and to express to them my high appreciation of this new mark of confidence and esteem.I also wish to thank the persons who have kindly attended this inaugural meeting, and more especially the ladies who honor us with their presence.The conditions which prevailed a short time after your predecessors came into office, in 1914, still exist.The war is being carried on more fiercely than ever, and although there is no doubt as to the ultimate success of our arms, the effect of the depression naturally arising from such a state of things will, nevertheless, be felt for quite a long period.Read automatically; may contain mistakes.
