Driver of hearse
Fined for Speeding

So morose did James Posey. colored,
become after driving hearse at a
funeral that he drank a quantity of
whisky and gin to drown his sorrow,
and then drove his team of horses and
hearse on a wild ride through Anacostia.
Low spirits was the cause ascribed by
Posey for his rash act in the District
branch Of the Police Court yesterday,
where he was fined $125 for driving
fast and cruelty to animals.
Policemen testified that Posey and the
hearse and horses passed over the Ana
costa bridge and through the township
at a greater rate speed than anything
that has travelled Anacostia streets in
years. The horses were caught on the
hill near the Government Hospital for
