Because the Tiffin River is always busy dissolving farms and shifting sand bars it is the muddiest river in the world. It is so thick that it cracks, sometime in working its way around the bends. At certain season of the year, is scarcely enough water to keep the mud moist and it has to be drank with a fork. Throw a man into the Tiffin and he will not often drown. Its more likely that he will break his leg. In every glass of good rip Tiffin River water there is at least a peck of sediment. Old residents claim to have made grindstones in the early days by running Tiffin River water through a big pipe and cutting it into flat disk with a handsaw as it came out.
