[Leica] IMG: From Bob's Trash Pile

[Bernard Quinn]

Jim,

I just looked at Google to see if I could find the answer. I did not have much luck. I am neither a Civil Engineer nor a historian so I do not know  the answer. The canal was basically built in the 1830’s. Based on this I would offer the speculation that it was done by drilling and blasting powder.
