Docked boat with mules, Pinesburg
On the return trip back to Cumberland, boatmen would often stop at different mills or stores in order to ship materials upstream. This business used the canal as a mode of transportation for its goods in order to take advantage of the larger market in Cumberland. The men are posing for their picture while the mules stand waiting to get the voice command to move on up the towpath.
