Cooper’s Well
Its Location.
Cooper’s Well is the most noted mineral water
in the United States;  It is in the county of 
Hinds, State of Mississippi, fourteen and a half miles
southwest of Jackson, and four miles from Raymond,
the county seat, a station on the line of the Natchez,
Jackson & Columbus Railroad.
Persons desiring to visit Cooper’s Well will leave
trains at Raymond, on Natchez, Jackson & Columbus
Railroad.  From thence they will be conveyed by
Hacks direct to the well.
The water rises in a well ninety-seven feet deep.
The surrounding country is broken and diversified,
and is noted for the remarkable purity of the
atmosphere and its well known and highly  valued 
healthfulness and no more pleasant summer retreat could
be found.
