Excerpt from Infant Mortality: Results of a Field Study in Akron, Ohio, Based on Births in One Year

Excellent transportation facilities have contributed largely to the rapid growth of the city. The canals were responsible for the early development of Akron; the Ohio Canal, begun in 1825, connected the city with Lake Erie at Cleveland and with the Ohio River at Portsmouth; the Pennsylvania Ohio Canal placed Akron in direct line of communication between Pittsburgh and Cleveland. But both these means of transportation have fallen completely into disuse. At present the city is served by three trunk-line railroad systems.
