APPENDIX. 603 
THRUSH, occurring from mismanagement only, and not from any defect 
in the horse, i is clearly not to be considered as unsoundness. 
Soreness of the joints from work, as it soon goes off after a short rest, 
is not accepted as unsoundness. 
Winpea.ts are also only evidences of work, and do not usually cause 
lameness. When this coexists, it is sufficient to produce unsoundness, 
without resorting to the windgalls. 
THE FOLLOWING LIST comprises the diseases and injuries which have 
been settled as sufficient to entitls the purchaser to return a horse warranted 
sound :— 
Bog spavin, when it is so severe as clearly to intatfare with the action 
of the joint; and BLOOD SPAVIN, as marking an aggravated form of the 
same disease. 
BreakKING DOWN, even though the horse is restored so as to run without 
lameness. 
BROKEN WIND. 
CaTARACT, in any degree. 
Corns, unless very trifling; but they should be discovered within a 
few days of the sale, or it may be alleged that they have been produced 
by subsequent mismanagement. 
Coven, as long as it lasts. A horse with chronic cough is clearly 
returnable. 
Curss constitute unsoundness ; but they must be shown to exist ut the 
time of purchase, for a horse may throw one out immediately after he is 
transferred to the purchaser. 
Diseases of the organic kind, in any of the internal viscera. 
Farcy. 
‘FouNDER, or LAMINITIS, whether it produces lameness or not, if it 
manifestly has existed, is to be accepted as unsoundness ; for when there 
is evidence of its previous occurrence, the laminz are injured so much as 
inevitably to lead to lameness when the horse is put to work. 
Gruask, and GLANDERS. 
Mance. 
Mecrims, when tue attack comes on subsequently to the sale, and can 
be shown to have occurred before it. 
A NERVED HORSE is unsound from the existence of the disease for which 
the operation has been performed, as well as from the division of the nerves. 
OPHTHALMIA, if it can be proved to have previously existed, and comes 
ou soon after the purchase, is to be received as unsoundness. So, also, 
when any of the evidences of its previous presence can be detected, and 
are proved by a veterimary surgeon, the horse is returnable. 
OsstFicaTIon of any of the structures adjacent to the joints is unsound- 
ness, and hence ossification of the lateral cartilages will be considered so, 
without doubt. 
PumiceD FooT, as evidence of laminitis. 
QUIDDING. 
()UITTOR. 
Rinepones, and SipEBones, whether large or small, are undoubtedly 
sufficient to constitute a horse unsound. 
RoarinG, whistling, &c., as evidence of contraction of the rima glot- 
tidis, and therefore interfering with respiration. 
RUPTURES OF ALL KINDS. 
SravIN (bone), although it may not have occasioned lameness, if it is 
clearly the disease so named.
