From Campbell Harvery Manuscript - (Grandson of Colin and Caroline Campbell)
The scow was simply a square barge, long enough and wide enough to accomodate a wagon and team of horses. A protective railing along the sides protected the passengers, and in it were the sockets, into which the oarlocks fitted. It was propelled by oars, maybe 12 feet long, which were usually manned by two persons, but the rower could move it. |
