TRIAL OF COACH-DRIVERS
Coach drivers frequently have to contend with passengers who insist upon being accompanied by extraordinary objects of luggage. It is on record in England that one man travelled from London to Manchester with a fullsized harp, another brought several largo pictures in gilt frames, and yet a third insisted on taking a radiogramophone, 3ft 6in long by 3ft high. An actor wished to make the journey with a roll of scenery measuring 28ft; the coach in which he proposed to travel was some 6in shorter.
