WOUNDS 255 
ing about an inch of the horny substance of it, the entire 
completion of which I should rather doubt, as I mentioned 
in my former communication that the sensitive lamine 
and a small portion of the sole were lacerated, and it is in 
these parts that the imperfections exist. 
‘The yet imperfectly-formed wall not admitting of the 
insertion of nails all around it, the shoe is held on partly 
by nails and partly by a strap attached to it bound round 
the coronet.’*

It occurred to an animal regularly engaged in shunting, 
and happened through the corner of the shoe becoming 
“trapped” between a line of metal and the wheel of a 
truck. It is particularly interesting on account of the 
photograph accompanying it, and which we here reproduce 
in Fig. 115. 
‘The photograph shows plainly the manner in which the 
holding of the ‘“‘ clinches” on the left side of the hoof has 
resulted in drawing it off from the foot. Had these 
clinches, as Mr. Rogerson suggests, been left unfastened, 
then the accident in all probability would not have occurred. 
The animal was destroyed.’t
