Perilous Carriage Ride and Sunset Cox Tale in Empire City
A vivid reminiscence from Empire City recounts a breezy Fifth Avenue carriage ride that narrowly misses wheels, featuring Sunset Cox and a driver proud of his midnight steering. The tale blends urban hazard, a patient passing of fare, and a portrait of Cox, with digressions on red hair as a cultural motif and reflections on moonlit countryside outings and a novel electric watch lamp.
