chiefly for Dublin, Belfast and Cork,
though it is possible it may not prove
unavailing in attracting TO the shores
of the Potomac part of that surplus
labor which England as well as Ireland
could so conveniently spare, and which
we both greatly need and have the
power to reward.
Meat three times a day, plenty Of
bread and vegetables, with a reasonable
allowance for liquor, and 8, 10 or II
dollars a month for wages, would we
suppose, prove a powerful attraction
to those. who. narrowed down in the
circle of their enjoymentS have at this
moment a year OF scarcity presented
to them
In another letter urging renewed ef-
forts to secure laborers, MI Mercer held
out these glowing pomiseS:
After 4 or years of eXertlOn, every
laborer might confidently rely on being
able to till a farm of his own, on the
margin of that canal which he will have
previously dug
AS a result of these recruiting efforts
over thousand English and Irish
laborers were brought over and put TO
work on the canal by 1880. Camps were
established at the various residences
along the canal right-of-Way, and the
individual contractors agreed to provide

each and their new lumber was used In
the construction of homes and CONNER
cial buildings in Georgetown. These
boats were too heavy and large for
return trip upstream.
The orevity of the boating season and
the frequent destruction Of boats and
cargo on the river rocks led to the
final suspension of company activities
in 1921 and to agitation for continu-
Gus and more serviceable route.
After many years of effort on the
part of canal proponents in Maryland
and Virginia, and as result of the
untiring efforts of Charles Fenton Mer-
Ger of Leesburg, Va, the Chesapeake
and Ohio Canal Co. was finally organ
lied in 1928 and the first spadeful of
dirt was turned by President John
Quincy Adams in an elaborate cere-
mony held near Little Falls.
One Of the first difficulties faced by
the company was that of securing ade-
uuate and competent labor. The labor
market at that time was comparable
to that of the present day, only the
scarcity then was due to the large
number of public works projects under
way at the time rather than to war.
To meet this general shortage of labor
the company sent abroad a special agent
Mr.. Henry B. Richards, and utilized
the American diplomatic Offices to con-
tract for the importation of laberers
These workers were to be employed
under an indenture to secure the pay
ment of their passage across the At.
lantic.
inducements for Labor.
Thus we find Mr.. Mercer, the presi
dent of the canal company, writing t.
