Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from The Engineering Journal, 1941, Vol. 24: The Journal of the Engineering Institute of Canada

With the exception of the installation of the new clock and the old bell, the Spire was completed in November, 1940. It is believed that this is the first time cast aluminum plates have been used, in imitation of stone masonry, on a church Spire.

A detailed inspection of the masonry arches in the inte rior of the church was made prior to the actual underpinning operations. All cracks and defects were carefully recorded and the most prominent ones were marked and photo graphed. Elevation marks were also established on the columns and piers. Subsequent inspections and level readings indicate that there has been no movement since the start of the new work.
