horse was sound to the best of his belief. He had given a 
large price for him, and had hunted him two seasons, and 
he believed him to be perfectly sound. At Tattersall’s all 
he said to the plaintiff when he saw him in the stables ex- 
amining the horse, was, K Holloa, you are trying to find out 
the screws; that’s right; I don’t think you will succeed.” 
His groom swore the horse was perfectly sound when sold, 
and three veterinary surgeons — one, Professor Spooner, of 
the Veterinary College, swore they had examined the horse 
after his return, and had tried him in every way, and they 
declared him to be perfectly sound. The horse was sub- 
sequently bought for 145 guineas by Mr. Hall, solicitor, of 
Bos well-court, Lincoln’s-inn, and had by him been hunted 
this season, and he was, in his judgment, perfectly sound, 
and a very valuable horse. 
The learned Counsel for the defendant submitted that the 
representation made before the sale to the plaintiff did not 
amount to a warranty, the sale being afterwards by public 
auction without warranty. 
His Lordship reserved this point, giving the defendant leave 
to move to enter a nonsuit. 
His Lordship then summed up, directing the jury that, if 
in their opinion there was an unqualified representation by 
the defendant to the plaintiff that the horse was sound, 
with a view to the plaintiff’s subsequently bidding for the 
horse, they must find their verdict for the plaintiff on the 
warranty; and they must also say, on the conflicting evidence, 
whether the horse was sound at the time of the sale or not. 
The jury, after a short consultation, found a verdict for the 
plaintiff on both points submitted to them. — Damages, £142.
