VETERINARY JUIIISPRUDENCE. 
days, but he eventually returned him; and, on the 15th oi Sep- 
teinber, he was sent to London. Mr. Watmore took him back, 
and repaid him the money. Mr. Watmore previously asked him 
to keep the horse at £100', but he would have nothing more to do 
with the animal. The horse would lead as quietly as another 
horse ; it was when he was saddled that he was thus restive. 
Cross-examined. —Was sure that he was lame ; thought him 
so from the first; could not tell the nature of the lameness. Was 
at Tattersall’s when the horse was sold : he was sold as a re¬ 
turned horse—was sold for sixty-two guineas. He did not bid 
for him, nor did his partner, nor anybody for them. The de¬ 
fendant bought him again. 
James Tooley was servant to Tawney—led the horse to Bar- 
net; was six days on the road ; fed him as usual : he led very 
well. On the following Sunday he attempted to ride him : he 
set his back up when saddled. Led him out of the stable into 
the field; got upon him: there were more horses exercising in 
the field ; °he followed them round the field, but, when he 
wanted, lie could not get him away from them: got down and 
then led him away ; but he had previously tried all he could to 
manage him : he jumped, plunged, and threw himself all man¬ 
ner of ways. 
He took him out again on the Monday : he was then worse 
than ever; he could not get him out of the yard ; threw himself 
down with him upon him : had him in the yard for twenty mi¬ 
nutes, rearing and plunging, and running against the wall, until 
he threw himself down, and then there was an end of him for 
that day. He rode him again when Mr. Watmore came; he 
got against the wall as soon as he was out of the stable door: 
never rode him afterwards. 
He was then sent to the livery stables ; he went quiet enough, 
for he was led. He was a vicious horse—was lame in the near 
fore foot: did not know the nature of the lameness ; it was 
enough for him that the horse was lame. 
Cross-examined. —Said that it w 7 as enough for him to know 
that the horse was lame, because, if he was lame, he could be 
returned. Rode him with a double bridle, but without spurs: 
always uses the snaffle portion of the bridle, but thinks it best 
to have a double rein. He told his master that the horse was 
rusty , as soon as he came home. 
--- East , partner to Tawney, was present when his partner 
bought the horse; saw him afterwards : he was lame in the near 
fore leg. Saw him tried at East Barnet: he was a decidedly 
restive horse. 
R. Phillips saw the horse at East Barnet: saw the groom at¬ 
tempting to ride him : gave the same account as the others, and
