A REAL CAB Heusi.—John Joseph Elliott, a cab-
arivPr, of No. 9., Crown-ervinf, I,Vontworih etrcct, While-
chapel, was brought before Mr. Woolrych, charged with
working a horse in the cab No. 951, which was not in a fit
state to be worked.

The case was proved by police. sergeant Dillon, No. 19 K
who saw the defendant's horse and cab in 13Th-street,
Shad well. It was quite worn out, had a tore back, and
was sore all over. Mr. Cotton, of Worship. street, was the
owner of the horse.

The Sergeant said the horse was a very small one, but at
one time it did a good deal of work.

The defendant, in reply to the charge, said—lt is a real
cab horse, your honour. I was not aware it was so bad as
it is.

Mr. IVoolrych went into the station-house yard adjoin-
ing the court, and on his return said that ,the animal was
a fair specimen indeed of a real cab horse, and ought not to
be worked at all in its present state. He doubted very
much whether it ought ever to be worked again. The
knacker's yard was the best place for it. He fined the pri-
soner 305., which he said the owner of the horse ought to
