Inventor’s Four Wheeled Vehicle Promises Swift Travel
Blacksmith Jacob Ebenhardinger of New Hanover township Mont County unveils a hand propelled four wheeled carriage. The sulky style seat allows one handed steering while feet operate treadles to move the wagon. It claims speeds of a mile in three to four minutes on level ground. A proposed route from Alta Springs via Springfield to Chambers Creek links with existing stage lines to Waco Tyler Sawyer. The traveling public is invited to favor this new line with comfortable coaches and careful drivers, Monday Wednesday and Friday at eight o clock.
