Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New York Coach Makers Magazine, Vol. 2: Devoted to the Literary, Social, and Mechanical Interests of the Craft; June, 1859, to May, 1860 The first volume of this work was commenced with less than one hundred and fifty subscribers, with the injurious effects upon the community of another's defalcations, and the hard times to battle with. These have now all been overcome, and the prospect is, that our third voyage will be over smoother seas. With the inducements we ofi'er - low rates of passage, good fare (properly inspected), and an agreeable crew, we feel persuaded that the companions of this trip will secure every berth (volume) we shall be able to provide for their accommodation. Under these convictions, we shall lay in an extra stock of food for the mind, that none may find occasion to charge us with having put them on a short allowance, through any neglect on our part. Trusting that we shall have the continued smiles of the craft upon our efi'orts, and promising that we will use our best endeavors to please, we are Yours faithfully.
