& O. Boats carrying about 110 tons each make the trip from Cumberland to Georgetown, D. C, or Alexandria, Va. , in from four to five days over the water route, in which Washington was so much interested both before and after the Revolution. In the very early days some of the coal from this district was hauled south to Westernport and thence boated along the north branch of the Potomac, but that is done no more. In and around Frostburg are many points of interest if the tourist has time to look ...them up. From Dans Rock, on the summit of Dans Mountain (named for Daniel Cresap, son of the pioneer. Col. Thomas Cresap), about seven miles southeast of Frostburg, is had one of the finest views in the Appalachians, embracing parts of Maryland, Pennsylvania and West Virginia, and an especially long stretch of the north branch of the Potomac. It is, however, difficult to reach by motor, though sooner or later the county or state will probably build a good road to that point. One of the two Maryland State normal schools is located at Frostburg, and also the Miners' Hospital, built and maintained in co-operation be- tween the state, city and mining companies.
