ORIGIN OF THE SEDAN CHAIR
Mesa Common Meane o. Travel In
European cities In osvan-
tsenth Century.

The Sedan chair, SO called from the
French town In which 1t was nrst
made. was the most common means OF
travel in European cities in the seven
teenth and part of the eighteenth CEN
tury. Soon after they came into use
in Sedan they became extremely fash
ionable, and were in common use
among the wealthy classes for nearly
200 years.
The drst Sedan chair seen In Eng
land was In the reign OF James l.. tho
duke OF Buckingham being the own
er. 1t was in 1881 that the duke first
appeared publicly in the vehicle. and
there was no end OF popular clamor
about 1t. The people Indignantly de-
clared that the duke was employing
fellow creatures to do the work that
properly belonged to beasts. and de-
manded OF the king that he banish the
chair. The sovereign refused. how
ever, to interfere with the dukes
fancy vehicle and presently the popu-
lar indignation cooled on.
It was not until 1884 that Sedan
chairs gained any considerable de-
gree OF popularity in London. In that
year Sir Francis Dunconlbe obtained
an exclusive franchise to use, let. and
hire Sedan chairs IN London for a
period of IA years. The titled friend
OF the king thus founded what may
be called the first "cab stand IN Lon
don. BY 1649 Sedan chairs had come
into common use In England.
Meantime they had spread In popu-
larity on the continent, Spain being
one of the early countries to ADOPT
them.
