Navigation Scheme for Port Perry to Minden Lakes
A plan outlines a waterway chain from Port Perry through Scugog, Seurgeon, Balesna, Tay, and Chemung lakes into Peterborough County, aiming to connect with Lindsay Fenelon Falls and Coboconk via new locks. Eleven steamers and thirty-eight scows form a fleet valued at sixty to seventy thousand dollars, capable of moving over three million feet of lumber per trip. A single management under law is sought to reduce costs, boost efficiency, and raise freight rates only as service warrants. The Whitby Chronicle notes Lindsay and Peterborough as central trade hubs to reclaim northern carriage and challenge Port Hope, with Bridgenorth marking Peterborough’s frontier.
