Troy Daily Times article on Collpase of bridge over Tomhannock Creek



ID# 9,235
The following was copied from the files of the now-defunct TROY DAILY TIMES of August 3 1859 relative to the collapse of the bridge crossing TOMHANNOCK CREEK and which eventually put the railroad out of business. What follows is the logical sequel to the disaster and the likewise copied from THE TROY DAILY TIMES OF SEPTEMBER of September 16 1859. The last account is recorded on microfilm and is on file in the Reference Room on the second floor of the Troy Public Library and as the newspaper itself was not in very good shape insofar as some of the printing was concerned-due allowance must be made for any errors which may appear.
