FOOT-AND-MOUTH DISEASE. 
A Dealer Fined £150. 
At the Brentford petty sessions, on Saturday December 16th, a 
cattle dealer named Price Jones, of Abergele, North Wales, was 
summoned for having, on the 12th November last, at Twickenham, 
unlawfully driven along the highway ten animals suffering from the 
foot-and-mouth disease; also for having driven the said animals 
with a herd of 115 others along the said road. 
John Thomas, servant of the former, was also summoned for 
having driven the said animals along the highway at the same time 
and place. The magistrates dismissed one of the summonses 
against Jones, viz. that having reference to the driving of the ten 
animals ; but convicted on that of having driven the said animals 
in contact with 115 others not affected. They inflicted a penalty of 
£100; and in the case of Thomas imposed a fine of £50; in¬ 
default a distress ; and in default of distress, three months’ im¬ 
prisonment each. 
Defendants wished to appeal, but were informed there was no 
appeal. They did not pay the money, and left the magistrates to 
distrain.
