Died at Trenton Falls.

SUYDAM, Eliza
Trenton Falls: Since 500 copies of this description were printed, the melancholy death of Miss Eliza Suydam, daughter of Mr. John Suydam of New York, has unhappily occurred, who was drowned at the fourth fall or cascade, on the 20th July, 1827. She was aside from the path, and her death was not owing to any danger in the passage. The account of the rock at Trenton Falls, in the Evening Post is false throughout. There is not half the danger in visiting this scenery, which there is in a post coach from New York to Philadelphia or in the packets on the grand canal from Schenectady to Utica, or in the steamboats on our rivers, in which so many have lost their lives. Merely common care will secure the safety of every man, woman, and child, who visits the scenery at Trenton, whether by daylight or moonlight. JOHN SHERMAN. [A description of Trenton Falls, Oneida County, N.Y. by John Sherman; New York :: W.H. Colyer,1844]
