glandered condition of this horse ? A. The pustules in the membrane 
of the nose were present. 
Q. You mean the lining of the nose ? A. Yes, sir. 
Q. The mucous lining ? A. Yes, sir. 
Q. What do you mean by pustules? A. Weil, the enlargement to 
which I refer creates ulcerations, and these were very apparent and 
plain enough to be seen, and those I regarded, in conjunction with 
other syptoms, as diagnostic and characteristic of the condition termed 
glanders. 
Q. What do you mean by diagnostic ? A. That which identifies a 
case. 
Q. Did you make, at the time of the examination, any memorandum 
of your investigation ? A. I did. 
Q. Of this disease ? A. Yes, sir. 
Q. Have you that memorandum ? A. Yes, sir. 
Q. Will you read from that memorandum the result of that ex¬ 
amination ? 
(Question objected to.) 
Recorder Hackett:—Can you speak from memory exactly what 
happened at that time without recourse to your memorandum ? A. I 
think I can, sir. 
(Question withdrawn.) 
Cross-examination : 
Q. What time of the day was it ? A. Some time in the afternoon ; 
I cannot name the hour. 
Q. Have you forgotten it ? A. I did not make any entry of the 
exact hour on that occasion. 
Q. Some days you have more than one horse to examine? A. Yes, 
sir. 
Q. Do you know what day of the month this was ? A. Yes, sir, 
October the 3d. 
Q. Do you know whether you had any other horse to examine that 
day ? A. I will tell by reference. I would not be quite sure without 
referring to my memorandum. 
Q. How do you know you made a very careful examination of this 
horse? A. Because I make a very careful examination of all such 
cases. 
Q. That is the reason you say to the jurors here that you made a 
careful examination in this case, because you make a careful examina¬ 
tion of every horse brought under your notice ? A. Yes, sir.
