| description |
Plate from a children’s moral instruction book showing a man approaching the rear steps of a stalled omnibus in the cobblestone street. The driver grasps the reigns which are tethered to two horses in front, and looks behind him to watch, along with the passengers, as the man boards the carriage. In the foreground, a woman walks along the sidewalk with a small child, who points at the omnibus. Pedestrians and the building lining the street are visible in the background.<br /> <br /> Accompanied by text titled "The omnibus" that describes this mode of transportation as "a place in which civil manners are always noticed and proved," bemoans the boys who steal rides, and warns of the severe punishment for such actions. |
