68B 
VETERINARY JURISPRUDENCE. 
for six months ; never saw any thing wrong with his foot ; never 
saw a hole in either of his feet; never knew him lame. 
Cross-examined.- — Shod him two weeks before the Ban fair ; he 
was the property of Mr. Martin, of Ballinahinch, who sold him to 
Tweedy the defendant; Tweedy is not a regular horse jockey; 
knows that this is the same horse ; he is a brown horse ; saw him 
at Tweedy’s stables; Martin’s brother took him to Tweedy’s 
house. 
Re-examined. — Saw the horse to-day in Tweedy’s possession; 
he never was corned [a shoe produced ] ; it is not the same that he 
made and applied before the Ban fair. 
Defendant’s servant examined. — Saw the horse the day he was 
auctioned ; his condition was very much changed ; was quite dry 
in his hair, and did not look half as good a horse as when defend- 
ant sold him ; Tweedy is not a horse-dealer ; he makes his money 
by farming. 
Cross-examined. — The horse never was returned on Tweedy 
before, nor since ; was never sold since plaintiff returned him ; 
defendant has him yet, and he is at the court door to give evi- 
dence [great laughter'] ; he was in last Lisburn fair, and was shewn 
to Mr. Byrne, but was not sold. 
William M'Cormack examined. — Ts a pretty fair judge of a 
horse ; knew this horse ; saw him before he was sold in Banbridge 
fair ; never saw any thing wrong with him ; saw him on Saturda}^, 
and again to-day, and is of opinion that he is as sound a horse 
as any he ever saw. 
Cross-examined. — Isn’t a veterinary ; doesn’t take it on him. 
This concluded the case ; and, after some observations on the 
evidence, the learned Barrister gave a decree for the plaintiff for 
£ 20 . 
Solicitors for the plaintiff, Messrs. Frazer and Smyth ; for the
