Old Chesapeake City and the C&D Canal
Note the mules on the towpath. Inset:
Harry “Hat” Borger, former muleskinner who, in his youth, had walked the tow
path as he led the mules that pulled the barges and other vessels through the
narrow canal. Mr. Borger was the last mule driver to work the canal’s towpath.
The towpath ran along the canal’s north side.
