SITTING OF THE COUNCIL. 
“Moy, June 7, 1850. 
“ 5. This is to certify that I have this day examined a bay horse, a six* 
year, by request of Mr. Ryan, which is at present unsound, having an en- 
largement of the flexor tendon near the hind leg, not spavined. 
“ M. Small, V.S ” 
Mr. Quin commented on these certificates, contending that 
they proved the charge of deceit. 
The learned Barrister said this case could not be disposed of in 
that court, and he thought it was properly a case for a superior 
court : the parties may go to the Assizes. 
Ultimately the case was sent to be heard at the Assizes, which 
commenced in Armagh next day.
