Herman T. Pott National Inland Waterways Library
Table of Distances on the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers and Navigable Tributaries
Printed at Kennedys Franklin House, Third Street Opposite the Post Office, 1851. Chart of distances broken down by river and tributary. "This Chart has been the result of much labor, time and trouble, and is confidently presented to the public as containing the most correct River Distances yet published. It has been carefully compiled from Congressional Documents, and other reliable sources. The Slackwaters are from the published surveys of Companies which constructed them upon the various streams alluded to. The Ohio is from the last survey of the U. S. Topographical Engineers, and it will be seen that it is much shorter than the opinion generally held by river men and others who have travelled upon it -- disagreeing in this respect with many published works, no two of which agree.", Pencil ownership of G. W. Jacobs St. Louis, MO June 16th on inside of folder.
