VETERINARY JURISPRUDENCE. 
213 
After a short consultation the Bench remanded the case 
for a week ; but were disposed to let the prisoners out on bail 
if they could get respectable sureties. They must enter into 
their own recognizances of £50 each to appear next Monday, 
and find each two sureties of £25, or one of £50. 
Mr. Broion was bailed out immediately after the close of 
the inquiry, and Carlisle was liberated on Wednesday, on the 
bail of his brother, who had been written to for that purpose. 
The case came on again for hearing on Monday week, when 
Mr. Barker the purchaser of the horse, was in attendance. 
He deposed that he gave £32 for the mare, and produced a 
warranty, signed by Brown, that the animal was sound in 
wind and limb; that he bought her on the Monday morning, 
between nine and ten o’clock, and did not take her away till 
the Wednesday morning. There was nothing further of 
interest in this neighbourhood elicited; and Mr. Watson 
having replied to the whole case, the prisoners were committed 
for trial at the forthcoming Liverpool assizes — the same bail 
as was put in before being again accepted. 
HARDWICK V. SQUIRES. - 
Mr. Serjeant Miller and Mr. Miller appeared for the

Norman for the defendant. 
This action was brought to recover damages for the 
wrongful conversion of a horse. The defendant pleaded the 
general issue, and also that the horse in question was not 
the property of the plaintiff. The plaintiff was a livery- 
stablekeeper and horsedealer in Chenies-mews, Bedford- 
square, and the defendant carried on a similar business in 
Davies-mews, Grosvenor-square. It appeared that in the 
autumn of last year the plaintiff had a bay horse, which he 
was anxious to dispose of. For this purpose he employed a 
person named Mo watt, who had been for some months in 
his employ in selling horses. It was arranged that the price 
of £27 should be put upon the horse, but that if Mowatt 
could obtain a larger sum he should have the difference for 
his trouble. The horse was advertised, and a person named 
Tuck, who pretended he was coachman to a Mr. Esdaile, a 
pretended gentleman at Clapham, came and agreed to pur- 
chase the horse for the sum of £32. It was arranged that 
the horse should be taken to the defendant’s stables, and
