A Pleasure Trip TO Manchester Under
Painful Difficulties.

Yesterday at las party of newspaper
men and others left the kichm ono terml-
nus of the Manchester railway en- route
for the Owen Walden nupiials in Man
sbester. which was scheduled for 2:l5 +.
NJ The first hitch occurred at the Ale
shany railroad, where stoppage was
made for the shifting train. AT the tree
bridge another delay was made. After
waiting some time it was learned that 1t
vas impossible for the horses or mules to
TO over the free bridge without being
rough shod. There was only one small
yellow mule which had the required shoe
Ing. So the car had 20 wait until the
eaT hound for Richmond arrived, and the
transfer was made.
Finally this was done ana another $ art
made. About the centre Of the cridge a
LOT of carriages had taken possession Oh
the track and the car-driyer hao to creep
along to suit their slow notions.
In short time one attempted to leave
the track, and in doing so his horses fell
down. Then all the other drivers left
their hacks on the track, and went tc the
assistance of the fallen one. The driver was
sppealed 10 but seemed not to know what
10 do. Some of the passengers then
alighted and began to get the vehicles OIL
the track. Seeing this the drivers came
up and cleared the track. Manchester
was finally reached, and at the corner OF
Hull and Seventh streets a large rock
placed on the track by some one
came near throwing the car OIL
and gave the passengers heavy
Jolt. The party after many difficulties
reached the church just before the cere-
nony. The trip back was about repe-
tition of this story, with the exception
that the superintendent was aboard and
kept the track clear. 1t was fearful
place for horses. The bridge was as
slick as glass, and travel was well nigh
impossible After IL o'clock two or more
horses could be seen down on the bridge
and several wagons and much harness
were badly injured.
