Canton Public Library’s display case will feature a model of the packet boat the DeWitt Clinton, which traveled on the waters of the Farmington Canal in the early 1800s, carrying canal passengers between New Haven and Northampton, Massachusetts. The model is part of the gallery exhibit “The Farmington Canal in the Farmington Valley.” The De Witt Clinton is on loan from the New Haven Museum and Historical Society.
