MERRIQL A. FROST, OF SUMPTER, MICHIGAN.
IMPROVEMENT'IN HARNESS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 222,485, dated December 9, 1879 application filed September 2, 1879.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, MERRILL A. Fnosr, of
' Sumpter, Wayne county, Michigan, have invented an Improvement in Plow-Harness, of which the following is a specification.
The object I have in view is to produce harness for supporting a double-tree and whiffletrees below and between the legs of a span of horses, with a single connection with the plowclevis, so that such whiftletrecs or the doubletree cannot work forward in use and strike the fore legs of the horses, as is the case with harnesses now in use for such purpose.
The invention consists in the peculiar construction of the harness, in combination with the double-tree and whiffletrees.
The double-tree is supported transversely beneath the bodies of a pair of horses, and between the fore and hind legs of the same, by hooking the whiffletrees into rings 0, hanging down on the sides of the horses a little in the rear of the center of their bodies. These rings 0 are connected by short tugs B with the collar and harness A, and by hip-straps D with the back-strapE, which extends from the collar and hames to the crupper E. By these means the rings 0 are supported in one position and prevented from slipping forward, which would allow the double-tree to swing against the fore legs of the horses.
What I claim as my invention is In a plowharness, substantially as described, the whiftlctree-rings G, hun g from the hames by tugs B, and from the back-strap and crupper E E by the hip-strapsD,whereby the double-tree is prevented from swinging *forward against'the fore legs of the horses.
