In 1844, two years after Croton water first reached Manhattan, J. Hazzard published this piano waltz celebrating the Croton water celebration. It was registered with the U.S. District Court the same year as Henry F. Williams's better-known waltz of the same name — two composers setting the city's new water supply to music in the same season.
