from a pottery in Moor-lane to Wolverhampton, and
on returning to Motriene he took his horse out of the

While here the passenger train, which leaves Dudley at 8.30

one of the honoe's hoofs, with the shoe encompassing it, wee
out in halves. The engine, however, although somewhat
shaken by the shook at the moment, was not thrown off the
rails, and the train proceeded lately on its 0013130.
