Scope and Content Note

The documents in this series are apparently part of a larger series of filed documents of the Canal Board, now lost. The records were labelled "Miscellaneous Canal Board Papers, 1827-1833."

They include: draft circulars to canal employees; tables of distances on canals; abstracts of blanks furnished to toll collectors; statements of tolls collected (including totals for packet boats, which are named); and draft reports on canal affairs.
