• Notes

  "It was said that Bryant loved the races and also tended to imbibe a little too much at these events. They were on their way home from one of these races and Bryant was running the horses too fast. Some say that something spooked the horses, others that he was just going too fast to make one of the curves. In any event, Bryant lost control and their carriage went over the steep grade on the old River Road. Both were killed instantly." [Arnold Taylor, citation details below]
