Lake lengths and a plan for a Milwaukee rail link
An article surveys Great Lakes dimensions and climate data, then argues against a Wisconsin debt from the Rock River Canal. It discusses a Milwaukee to Mississippi railroad project, noting connections to Rochester and Niagara, plus a Michigan chartered line. It mentions Ohio railroad acts and a Salisbury convention in June, with broader North Carolina and Virginia rail interests.
