Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Lake Commerce: Letter to the Hon. Robert M'clelland, Chairman of the Committee on Commerce in the U. S. House of Representatives, in Relation to the Value and Importance of the Commerce on the Great Western Lakes
Sir z - Your letter of the 8th of January, requesting me to furnish you with all the information I could, in relation to the present state of the commerce of the Great Western Lakes, I answered early in February, communicating such informa tion as I had then collected and could conveniently lay my hands upon. This matter being of the greatest importance to a very large portion of our extended country, rapidly increasing in wealth and population, I have, since my former letter to you, taken much pains to procure from official and other reliable sources, many additional and important facts in regard to it, which I now beg leave to lay before you.
