sjons from what he saw himself than what he heard ; and that a profes¬ 
sional man, however experienced, might be mistaken in the conclusion 
he came to. 
Mr. John Edward Peele, member of the Royal College of Veterinary Sur¬ 
geons, Durham, wa3 of opinion the cow was suffering from tuberculosis, 
and not pleuro-pneumonia. In the latter disease, during his experience, 
he had found one lung only affected, and generally the right one. Mr. 
Batey, who made the post-mortem examination, had said that both 
lungs were affected. That was a case unprecedented in the annals of 
pleuro-pneumonia. 
This was the case for the respondents, and Mr. Luck reviewed the 
evidence that liad been given, remarking that it was impossible for the 
Bench to confirm the conviction in the face of the professional testi¬ 
mony he had adduced, and when they bore in mind the great number 
of mistakes that had been made as to the existence of pleuro-pnemonia. 
The Bench, after a brief consultation, dismissed the appeal with costs 
and thus upheld the conviction. 
Mr. Luck asked the Bench to grant him a case for the Queen’s Bench, 
on the technical objections he had taken. A case was granted as to 
whether the Court had power to make the amendment in the conviction 
from three to two months’ imprisonment .—Durham Chronicle.
