' UNITED STATES BENJAMIN F. HAVILAN D, 013 DANVlLLE,'V-ERMONT.
PATENT O FIGEO,
IMPROVEMENT IN HARNESS-HAMES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 173,539. dated February 15, 1876; application filed January 22, 1876.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, BENJAMIN F. HAVI- LAND, of Danville, Caledonia county, Vermont, haw'e'invented a new and Improved Rein- Guide for flames, of which the following'is a .ries it too-.much on one side, therein can be thrown out on the other side, so as to be more effective in pulling the head into the right line.
Figure 1 is a side elevation, and Fig. 2 is a front elevation, of a hame provided with my Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts;
A is the heme, whereon I' propose to cast or otherwise form a kind of open frame-work, comprising upper and lower rein guides B C and outer one D, in addition to the ordi nary guide E, so that Inlayrun the rein higher or lower, 'or nearer to or farther from the side of the neck, as may he demanded by the Way the horse carries his headthe said guides to be provided onboth hames, and
others may be added, it necessary.
In some cases a contrivance of this kind is very necessary. For instance, a valuahle team may be matched in every way, except that one horse may carry his head too high or too low for the other one, or too far out or in' laterally, which may be corrected by this contrivance; and it corrects, to some extent, a difficulty growing out of the different angles of the reins of the opposite sides to the bits in the mouth of the horse, in that, by running the outside rein throughthe outer guide D, it increases the angle of the outside rein and approximates in to the angle of the inside rein, which crosses from the other horse, and thus makes the horse carry his head more evenly.
In the application of this contrivance to a high hame, which extends above the upper hame strap, the guide may be made separate from the hame, with a socket to fit on the upper end of the hame, and at the lower end and center it may be screwed or otherwise fastened on. v
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire 'to secure by Letters Patent A hame provided with one or more upper and lower and outwardly projecting reinguides, B O D, additional tothe ordinary guide E, substantially as specified.
BENJAMIN F. HAVILAND.
