I Remembered This, But Where?

 

Laws of the State of New-Hampshire (1830), 160.

Does your horse have a speedometer?

  1. Were there white lines across the road with which to time with a stopwatch? Torso? Hoof on the ground? In the air? :-)

  2. A brisk walk. If the cop had to jog to keep up, that was too fast.

  3. Interesting the fine is in shillings. You'd think by 1830 the dollar would have taken hold. Must be a hold-over law from the colony of NH?
