A splendid roadster, able to do its thirty miles a day without losing flesh, and therefore altogether unaccustomed to the whip, the animal swerved violently, threw its fore-feet into the air, and brought the vehicle to the very edge of the bridge. Broughton jerked out an oath, pulled the nearer rein, and once more brought the lash down on the horse's Uank3. In a moment the strident cry of fear escaped him.
