120 WARRANTY OF 



without for ever after bearing evidences thereof, can 

 yet do an immense amount of work continuously for 

 several years, in a satisfactory way, and free from 

 lameness and other inconveniences. A horse, however, 

 that has never done any work, but shows similar 

 "structure" or symptoms, must be looked upon with 

 suspicion, and ought to be called, as in most instances 

 he is, UNSOUND. 



The difference between a horse that has never been 

 worked, and a used or worked one, is easily detected. 



Horses that show signs of past work, and yet perform 

 the amount of labour due from one of their class, ought 

 to be warranted as " worked horses." 



Thus, when a worked horse is no longer qualified 

 for the same kind of work as that which he has been 

 accustomed to, or where he has such of the above- 

 mentioned trifling drawbacks, as are not detrimental 

 to his fulfilling his vocation, he should bear a warranty, 

 at the very least, as a " used horse ; " and where a 

 worked horse becomes degraded to a lower class (as in 

 the case of a horse which, no longer suitable for a 

 hunter or saddle-horse, yet makes a very good harness- 

 horse), he should be described in the warranty as a 

 " used horse, for harness only." 



By the largest users of this class of horse, this want 

 is well known and much felt ; and although legislation 

 has not provided such a form of conditional warranty, 

 yet it is frequently given and taken by stage-coach
