Excerpt from Report on the Introduction of a Supply of Pure Water Into the City of Rochester: Made to the Mayor and Common Council, September, 1860Many considerations might be presented to show the import ance Of furnishing this city, from some one Of the numerous sources situated beyond its limits, with an adequate supply Of that element so essential to the business, safety, health and com fort Of its population. Yet the necessity Of Obtaining this great and desirable boon for our citizens, is now perhaps so generally conceded, that it will not be expedient in this place to dwell upon the many Obvious and imperative reasons why this enterprise 5 should be undertaken, and we may proceed at once to state some Of the leading characteristics Of the Water Works in other cities, and also some Of the particular local facilities and disadvantages attending the accomplishment Of a similar work for Rochester.The following Circular Letter has been recently addressed to the Presidents or Superintendents Of all the Water Companies, or Water Boards in the country, and very satisfactory answers have been returned, either by definite replies to the interrogato ries in the circular, or by sending their printed annual reports.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
