 on the pleasure of the traveller. The rate is threepence per 

 mile outwards, — the return journey not being charged for. 

 Another way, in which I have myself been accustomed to 

 pay, is one shilling for the first, and sixpence per hour, or 

 fraction of an hour, afterwards. If excursions occupy a day, 

 or several days, the driver's pay is six shillings per day. 



The charge for a one-horse conveyance is one shilling per 

 mile outwards, and, if a return journey, sixpence per mile 

 back. For a two-horse one shilling and sixpence per mile, 

 and half rate for return. 



For conveyance to a certain point there is no charge for 

 food for man and horse ; but if there is any waiting at the end 

 of the drive, in order to return, the feed of the horses and 

 the driver's dinner will amount to about five shillings and 

 sixpence. The hire of a single-horse conveyance for one 

 day is twenty shillings, and the driver's pay of six shillings 

 makes it twenty-six shillings a-day, exclusive of the feed. 



The Tolls are invariably charged to the traveller.
