Howe tells us, that in Washington County, "westerly from Abingdon, between Three Springs and the North Fork of Holston, on Abram's Creek, in a narrow, gloomy ravine, bounded by a high perpendicular ledge, is a large waterfall, which in one single leap descends perpendicularly 60 feet, and then falls about 40 feet more ere it reaches the bottom. The stream is about 20 feet wide." DISTANCES. FROM WASHINGTON CITY TO THE VIRGINIA SPRINGS. ROUTE NO. 1. Miles from Miles. Washington.
