Stamp on front wrapper: Maryland Historical Society Baltimore; ink note at top of title page "Gift of Fred E. Dayton / 4-1-40" Lengthy discussion of the failure of the Maryland Legislature to either fund completion of the Canal, or waive the liens, so that the Company could undertake the work on their own chip. The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, abbreviated as the C&O Canal and occasionally called the "Grand Old Ditch,"[1] operated from 1831 until 1924 along the Potomac River between Washington, D.C., and Cumberland, Maryland. The canal's principal cargo was coal from the Allegheny Mountains. Construction on the 184.5-mile (296.9 km) canal began in 1828 and ended in 1850 with the completion of a 50-mile (80 km) stretch to Cumberland, although the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad had already reached Cumberland in 1842. Rising and falling over an elevation change of 605 feet (184 meters), it required the construction of 74 canal locks, 11 aqueducts to cross major streams, more than 240 culverts to cross smaller streams, and the 3,118 ft (950 m) Paw Paw Tunnel.
