Appendix (B.)

Proposed Scale for Turnpike Tolls on Steam Carriages.

A table should appear at this position in the text.
See Help:Table for formatting instructions.

Above this weight an arbitrary toll, preventing its exceeding it on narrow Wheels.

If the Tires of the Wheels exceed Three inches, the Tolls should be about one quarter less, and the weight without injury, may extend to three tons and a half. If the Tires of the Wheels are Six inches wide, the Tolls should be about a third less, and the weight allowed to extend as far as four or five Tons.
