1 She managed to undo one, and to slip out the fastening of the trace, on one side, where it held to the whiffletree.

2 The whiffletree of the plow or cultivator used should be carefully fendered with rubber or a soft woolen packing that will effectually guard against the carelessness of workmen.

3 But within a few miles of Paris a whiffletree broke, the ungainly vehicle stopped, and the men jumped off to hold the horses and repair the damage.
