'Port Jervis and Vicinity', 1874. 'D. & H. [Delaware and Hudson] Canal; Mount Willam Port Jervis; Lackawaxen Aqueduct', New York State, USA. '...Mount William, from which there is a superb view - a wide, extended plain, through which the winding [Neversink] river can be traced for many miles...'. Roebling's Delaware Aqueduct, which opened in 1849, was designed to connect two parts of the Delaware & Hudson Canal (D&H) carrying coal from Lackawaxen in Pennsylvania to New York and New England. It was later converted to carry automotive traffic and pedestrians over the Delaware River. From "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In, A Delineation by Pen and Pencil of the Mountains, Rivers, Lakes...with Illustrations on Steel and Wood by Eminent American Artists" Vol. II, edited by William Cullen Bryant.
