To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
DesPlaines River.
THE TRIP DOWN THE CANAL.
%EAVING Dearborn Station via A. T. & S. F. Ry. The train pursues a course trending southwesterly, crosses the drawbridge over the South Branch of the Chicago river near Ashland avenue, then crosses the Illinois and Michigan Canal (which with the assistance of the Bridgeport pumping station, inadequately attempts to perform the work laid out for the great canal) and runs between it and the new Drainage Canal until section G (near Gahan & Byrne's Spur) i...s reached, beyond which point it crosses the Ogden Ditch, a continuation of the West Fork of the South Branch. The DesPlaines river is crossed soon after leaving the ditch, and just north of this crossing passengers may catch a glimpse of the spillway over which the surplus water of the river used to flow towards Chicago. At the time this spillway was built no arrangements had been perfected for carrying the entire flood waters of the DesPlaines river.
At section F (bridge 5) and the point from which the spillway may be seen, the first view of the diversion channel is to be had.
