A steady succession of vehicles "thorough-braced" wagons, a few more stylish carriages with elliptic springs, and here and there an ancient chaise tended from all quarters to the meeting-house. The horses, from the veteran of twenty years' service down to the untrimmed and half-trained colt, knew what the proprieties of the day required.
