are harness closets; C is a room for the coachman, or
which may be used in unfavorable weather for mend-
ing harness; two closets are opposite to it, in which
oil cans, medicine bottles, etc. may be stored.  D is
an implement-room, or, under some circumstances, it
may be used by the coachman as a sleeping-room.
  A flight of steps between the carriage-house and
stable leads to the hay-loft, granary, etc. over; these
are well lighted, as may be observed on the elevation,
and may be arranged according to the wishes of the
proprietor.
