COACHING ACCIDENT.
(/. 1/ Telegraph — Press Association.)
L.glewood, This Day,
As a five-horse brake, carrying nineteen passengers, was returning from a concert at New Plymouth, and was coming down a nasty hill, the driver, fearing the incapacity of the brake to hold back the load, drove into the water-table and was unable to leave it. At the end of the cutting, when reaching the embankment, the ground gave way, and the vehicle overturned. The driver had his shoulder-dislocated, two passengers being badly and two slightly hurt. The brake was badly smashed, but the horses are not hurt.
