An old style horse car line runs from the city limits two miles up hill to Cherrelyn. The horse pulls the car up hill and then gravely mounts the rear platform and rides back to the foot of the hill as comfortably as any of the passengers. The picture shows the horse pulling the car up the steep hill to the Cherrelyn terminus. The driver uncouples the harness, the passengers dismount, others run up to catch the car, and the horse quietly trots around to his platform. The car starts down the hill, increasing in speed very rapidly, while the horse nods his head and wags his ears to the passengers inside. Written by
