army on the driver of the post-chaise, mentioned in our

Gravesend, and, after spending some days there, long'd to
see a play:  Accordingly they took a post-chaise for this
important business; but fearing they should not be at the
play-house time enough, at the rate the post-boy drove, in
their rage and fury for so material a disappointment, they
committed this shockingly barbarous and cowardly act. . .
