This' ease wes tried before Mr. Baron Martin and a cora-
ssonjui7 in Boner Term. The verdict was then delivered
for the plaintiff. Mr. Serjeaat Shoe had obtained a rule
nisi for • new trial, against which Mr. Jams* and Mr.
Wordsworth for the plaintiff now showed cause.
It appeared that the plaintiff was a page in the service of
a clergyman sad the defendant the proprietor of the Hip-
podrome, the equestriaa establishment at Kensington. The
action was brought for damages for an injury received b
the kick of a hone of the defendant's whilst the plaintiff
was witnessing the performance. The plaintiff bad walked
to the barrier which separated the spaos in which the horses
performed from the spectators, sad whilst there the hone
in question turned round and kicked the plaintiff is the
fate, injuring him very much, sad disabling him from
attending to his duties for some weeks (during his confine-
ment in the hospital), and for which tune the rev. gentle-
man deducted from his yearly wages of Si. the sum equi-
valent to the time lost. The horse was assisting is the
spectacle of" The Trojan Youths with their Thessalian
Steeds." The defendant, it was alleged, had not taken
proper precautions to secure the public from danger, and
that the be: se was of a restive sad vicious nature.
