Vaile's Wealth

Latest comment: 7 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

The article states "Vaile shrewdly built his wealth by investing in several business ventures, including the construction of the Erie Canal", yet the canal was completed in 1825, six years before he was born. Perhaps this should read "including the operation" of the canal? Saratoga Sam (talk) 04:23, 21 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

@Saratoga Sam: Thanks for the catch. The source actually says "interests in the construction of the Erie Canal," which seems to make more sense. Markhole (talk) 09:34, 21 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
