THE WEST POINT CHAIN.
lt Was Nearly a Mile In Length and
Weighed Almost 200 Tons.

Il Was Nearly q Mile In Length and
Weighed Almost 200 Tons.
From an ironmaker's point OF view
the greatest achievement during the
Revolutionary period was the making
OF the great West Point chain. This
massive chain, which has probably
never had an equal since the first ham
mer struck upon the first anvil was
stretched across the Hudson river at
West Point TO prevent the British fleet
from making a second attack upon
Kingston and Albany. 1t was nearly
a mile in length and weighed almost
200 tons, many single links being as
heavy as an ordinary sized man. To
complete It in six weeks sixty men
hammered day and night at seventeen
forges, and the cost of it was placed
at 100000. "rhe great chain IS buoy
ed up" writes Dr. Tacher. "by very
large logs, pointed at the ends to less
en- their opposition to the force Of the
current 1he logs are placed at short
distances from each other the chain
carried over them and made fast TO
each by staples. There are also a
number of anchors dropped at proper
distances, with cables made fast TO
the chain. TO give it greater stability"
No British ship passed this iron bar
rier. With its aid West Point became
the strongest military post I'm America
so strong that treachery was tried
Where force Of arms had failed When
BenedicS Arnold was plotting the sur
render of West Point he wrote Andre
and said. II have ordered that n link
be removed from the greet chain and
taken 10 the smith for repair" The
chain, however, remained in place till
the end OF the war; and links of 1t are
still TO be seen in the museums OF Al
bany, West Point, Newburg aud New
York.-Exchange
