A dreary road

This day a post-chaise was hired at the King's Arms Inn, in Salisbury, to go beyond Collingbourne. After setting down his fare, the driver was returning at night towards Collingbourne, a dreary road, with which he was unacquainted, and it was so dark as to make it impossible to see the road.

Thus situated, he unfortunately dгоvе over a precipice, at the bottom of which he was found dead the next morning. The chaise was nearly broken to pieces, and the horses so much hurt as to render them nearly useless.
