| Notes | The people of the region were interested in getting a channel from Scottsburg to Roseburg, enabling more shipping. If a full channel would be too expensive, they hoped to get a shallow channel that could be used in higher water. Again, the conclusion was that any such navigational improvement would be too expensive. In Google Books. |
