Summary
| Description |
English: Although this appears to be an exaggerated condition of early roads, it was a common enough occurrence that the Good Roads magazine in May 1892 published the following guide on "What to do When A Horse Falls":
Jump down and hold the animal's head, to prevent his dashing it about to his own injury. Loosen the check-rein (if you are so foolish as to use one) and the parts of the harness which fasten on the vehicle Back the carriage so as to get the shafts and traces clear. Steady and support the horse's head, and excite and encourage him, with hand and voice, to rise. When you have got him up pat and further encourage him, and see if he is wounded or otherwise injured.Let him stand still a short time and recover himself, and then proceed gently and with greater caution than before. |
