bridge, to Watford. On going over UxbriJge Com-
mon, at a regular travelling pace, by some means or
other, the pole of the chaise dropped out of its regu-
lar situation, the horses took fright, and galloped off
at a furious rates when at the distance of halt a mile
the ladies made up their minds to jump out of ttie
chaise, which they imprudently did, one out of cm's
door, and shocking to relate, one of them was in-
stantly killed, and the other survived only a few mi-
nutes. The horses still continued their rapid career,
and soon after the post boy was thrown from the bar,
OR which he had permission to ride, under the wheels,
and hurt in so dreadful a manner that his life is de.
spaircd of. The horses, setting out of the road, were
at last stopped by running up to a large tree upon
the common, without any kind of damage to them-
selves or to the chaise.
