Inquiry Into the earliest forms of the autolUobllo has brought to light Church's steam coach , which ran
between London and Dirmlnbam , England , as early as 1830. It was somothlng llko a double ntago coach and
was constructed to carry twenty-eight Insldo passengers and twonty.two outside. 'fho chauffeur wore 0. great
coat wIth many cn os , as was the style with old.tImo coachmen.
A committee at the House of Commons was appolntod In 1831 to report on the growing automobllo movement -
ment , and found Its practicability fully eBtabl1shed. Popular projudlce , however , U was polntod out , wall strong
and led to the .lmposltIon ot heavy tolls , fecs and Hcense ! ! , so the motor fiend would seem to ho.vo had 0. rooky
