176th BATT. LEAVES FOR CAMP BORDEN TOMORROW
[Welland Telegraph, 4 July 1916]
The 176th battalion was notified on Thursday afternoon to go into camp at Camp Borden tomorrow. As a consequence the barracks at Welland, Niagara Falls, Thorold and St. Catharines will be vacant after tonight.
Lieut.-Col. Sharpe, who went to Algonquin Park to recuperate, was summoned home on Friday. He should really have had a longer rest for he is not yet fully recovered but came back to superintend the moving into camp.
All Welland should turn out in full force to give the boys a hearty send-off.
