An Awkward Stop

Description:

A color print of a one-horse farmer’s cart and a four-horse carriage going in opposite directions colliding on the road. There is great upset – the rear wheel of the carriage is resting on the stomach of a man who has fallen from his seat. One passenger, who has not been thrown from the coach, is making the comment recorded under “Marks.”
