The Time
In short distances, to know precisely at what time it is necessary to start, to arrive at any place at a certain hour, the driver has only to ascertain the distance, and to regulate the pace by the following table:—
| 4 | miles an hour, | 1 mile in | 15 | minutes. | |
| 5 | ditto | ditto | 12 | ditto | |
| 6 | ditto | ditto | 10 | ditto | |
| 7 | ditto | ditto | 8 | ½ | ditto |
| 8 | ditto | ditto | 7 | ½ | ditto |
| 9 | ditto | ditto | 6 | ½ | ditto |
| 10 | ditto | ditto | 6 | ditto |
In the streets of London, ten minutes at least, in every hour, must be allowed for stoppages.
