Water turbine used to drive the pumpsin the old Columbia Canal Water Plant
The turbine was manufacturedby the S. Morgan Smith Co. of York Pa.
Using Google I found out this bit of information about S. Morgan Smith.
Mr. Morgan had been a Moravian pastor and a chaplain in the Civil War before he invented turbine water-wheels. There is a stained glass window in his memory in the First Moravian Church 0f York,PA
