Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: PER-PIG
PHILLIPSBURG , a town of
Warren
  county, New
Jersey
 , U.S.A., on the
Delaware
  river, opposite Easton,
Pennsylvania
 , and about 51 M. N.N.W. of Trenton, N.J. Pop. (1900) 10,052, of whom 990 were foreign-born; (1910 U.S.
census
 ) 13,903. Served by the Central of New
Jersey
  and other railways, the town is situated in the river bottom and on a bluff which commands beautiful views. The river is spanned here by several bridges. The town has railway shops and various manufactures. In 19o5 the value of the factory products was $6,684,173 (45.8 % more than in 'goo). Phillipsburg was settled about 1750. It was only a straggling
village
  when the Morris Banking and Canal Company was chartered in 1824, but its growth was accelerated by the canal (no longer used), by the
establishment
  in 1848 of an iron furnace, and by the completion of the Central Railroad of New Jersey to this point in 1852; the town was incorporated in 1861.
