Land Forming Around the Rocks
Known as the "Three Sisters"

Lana ming AEOunA EhS
known as the ''Thrse Sisters"
The three huge rocks in the Potomac
River opposite Georgetown, known as the
Three Sisters, are no longer spoken OF
as a trio Of boulders. They now poke
their heads out of a considerable strip Of
land that is fast acquiring a material
value
In the past few months the accretions
around the rocks have grown so rapidly
as to be noted by the casual observer.
To railroads contemplating crossing the
river the Sisters and the surrounding land
have q peculiar value. The rocks have
always figured in the calculations of en-
gineers, who have prepared plans for a
bridge above the Aqueduct. The rocks
would afford a foundation for piers un-
surpassed for strength and location
It is stated that the title to these
rocks is in controversy, but that
tho heirs Of the late Captain Moore,
father-in-law of Esli Reid, OF Georgetown,
have letters patent covering them. AS
