MANSION-HOUSE,
The Lord Mayor sod Sir Robert Carden NMI engsp d
i
for a coneidirable time in disposing of an adjourne
summons against • dog fancier named William Reilly, who
resides in Leadthhall-market, for having illegally in his pos-
session a valuable Mount St. Bernard dog
Mr. Wooten, jos., appeared ter tbe ddeadant.
The complaisant is • cameo in Cancan street, and it
appeared that the animal in question, which was stated to
be every fine and valuable one, was lost from his premises
the months ago, sad handbills were issued announcieg
the loss, and *Rain a reward for in restoration. It
appeared that the mime' was found by a young man at the
east-end of the town, sad he took it to the Bow police-
station, and the parties there &eland to interfere, and,
eventually, he found a large animal, like the me in ques-
ta', rather an incumbranos than a benefit, and be seemed
to have been very gkid to dispose of it to the defendant
Rally for fifteen shillings, and be in turn appeared to 'have
made a very good thing of the tram/Akio, as he sold it to
a young gentleman for 41. and a Newfoundland dog stated
to be worth 34 While the dog was in his poesission he sp-
have received notice from its owner that
to it bad

t, but notwithstanding this he appeared hsve
with it, and he was consequently summoned by Mr.
Cratri d to show cause why he should not restore the
animal. The summoes on the former °opiates was ad-
journed in order to see if the parties could not oome to an
sinkable arrangement, Mr. Wooten onteodieg, on behalf
of the defendant, that he had in nowise infringed the law,
and that he was perfectly justified both sea bailee the
doe under the circumstances, sad in selling him spin.
Yesterday the young gentleman who had (nunhood the
dog, and who stated that he wee a clerk in a merchant's
office, was called to prove the circumstances under which he
purchased tho dog of the defendant, and he mid that the
animal was still in his poweinioe.
The Lord Mayor, sad Sir R. Carden also,
when all the
facts had been gone into, expressed their opinion that the
defendant bad acted very improperly to selling the deg
when be had been made 'untainted with the fact that it had
been lost. They also said that the defendant must have
knows that there was something wroeg about the traemo-
tion, when he only gave 15e. for ',dog that he afterwards
mold for such a large cam of mosey.
Mr. Wontner said that the man who sold him was glad to
get rid of him, and he had bees to the natl.:natation, and
the defendant was aware of the fact, and he contended that
this was all that he could be expected to do.
Eventually, and after a loos diseuesios, a string opinion
was expressed by the bench that the young gentleman who
bad purchased the dog ought to give it up, and look to the
defendant for the money he had paid him.
The present Demeanor of the dog did not seem quite
inolined to comply with this suggestion, and the summons
was again adjourned.
