When near Seventh street the horses,
which are mettlesome, became fright
ened and started away.
The coachman. Daniel Ainey, kept
control, and all would have gone well
but for the wheel breaking. This was
caused by the sudden Slowing" Of the
carriage over against the car tracks
at the curve approaching the bridge.
The cracking of the wheel and the
scraping further increased the horsees'
fright and flight. They ran up the
avenue until near the Delaware and
Hudson station before the coachman
could quiet and bring them to a stand
still. Fortunately the carriage had it's
leathern sides up, and the ladies were
not precipitated to the pavement when
