BOUNDARY LINE
LEFT UNCUARDED
Some 1000 Miles Clear Between
j. S. and Canada

Buffalo, Dec. SO-Tfe claim that
the 1000 mile boundary line between
the United States and Canada is with
out fort or military guard can be re-
stated today as a fact, following the
withdrawal of military force which
all summer and fan occupied Navy
Island, in the Niagara river just
above the Falls.
The commandment of the force was
corporal and his army con-
sisted of one private, They were
withdrawn on orders from ottawa
and sent to winter quarters at Tor
onto.
Navy Island was awarded to Can
ada when the boundary line along
the Niagara frontier was drawn by
treaty. 1t has an area of about 80
acres and is one Of the most pictur-
esquo spots in the Great Lakes chain.
Many years ago the Canadian gov
eminent leased Navy Island to a
Buffalo corporation which proposed
to establish a vineyard and orchard
there. The concern did not progress
and ultimately sublet its rights to a
tenant farmer who was the sole per-
manent occupant of the island for a
quarter Of a century.
Last spring the Canadian govern
ment desired to break the lease and
took action upon a clause which pro-
vided that the instrument would be
nullifed at any time Canada wanted
the island " for military purposes. y
The military force was dispatched
forthwith and the island became mill
tary area of Canada.
Winter evacuation was decided
upon to save the army from the
rigors of field duty during the
months of low temperature.
