Hidden Spring Said To Weaken Oswego Wall
In Oswego on July 23 a spring of water found during excavation near the East Side reservoir is believed to have caused the wall break. Superintendent William A. McCaffrey said the spring, hidden at the base, may have fed water into the earthen outer base. A 60 foot section of the west wall was washed away as water rushed down the hillside into the barge canal. The wall is part of a WPA project costing 20,000 and will be blocked with a great mixture to prevent future damage.
