The latter did not discover this till the coach was out ofsight, and realising the responsibility he was under in respect of themoney, which for safety he had placed in a holster below one of hispistols, he was in a great fright. There was nothing for it but to starton foot and endeavour to overtake the coach; but this he did not succeedi...n doing till he had run a whole stage, at the end of which theperspiration was oozing through his scarlet coat. At the completion ofthe journey he sponged himself all over with whisky, and did not thenfeel any ill effects from the great strain he had placed himself under, though later in life he believed his heart had suffered damage from theexertions of that memorable day.
