From the guestbook, 1903, a clipping from a newspaper: “an amusing feature of the automobile question in town happened last Thursday afternoon when two gentlemen driving a pair of spirited horses met an auto on Main street. The carriage, horses, and drivers took an unexpected trip around the vacant lot between the houses of T.S. Hart and C.W. Gilman, while the machine continued noisily on its way.”

Presumably, someone pasted it in the guestbook because they were involved and presumably it was in town.  I think the someone was driving the horses, as a car doesn’t show up in a photo here before about 1910, but I shall have to check.
