AUDIT ROW #383 · ASSEMBLED FROM THE LEGS, AS THE ITEM ORDERS · RESCUES EXCLUDED BY DESIGN
Counted in one place, the town's documented losses are: the Central Cut Glass factory, burned February 13, 1919; the opera house, ended on a date the record does not hold (GAP-W-ART-1); the two banks of 1930, closed as institutions in the Depression's first bank winter; and the Walkerton Market, the town's supermarket, permanently closed in the present era. Four losses across a century, of four different kinds — fire, unknown end, financial failure, retail succession's end — and the ledger prints them together precisely so the count can be seen to be small and the kinds distinct. Excluded by the item's own design, and stated as excluded: the rescues and survivals (the society's building, article above; the standing churches and houses of the religion and neighborhoods records) belong to other articles, and mixing them into the losses ledger would flatter the count. The ledger's completeness is bounded by the set that feeds it — it counts the losses the built legs document, no others — and is printed at that stated strength.
Principal sources: assembled from the banked set — Arts (the opera house), the Walkerton Digital Library's fire photograph (1919), Businesses (the 1930 banks), Food & Drink (the Walkerton Market's closure) — each pointed to in its own leg.
