LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

CITY OF LONDON COURT.
(Before Mr. R. M. Kerr.)

THE LIABILITY OF LIQUIDATOES--ANSTEY V. MANN.

This was an action to recover £2O for services
alleged to have been rendered to the defendant, who
is secretary octhe Warrant Finance Company (Li-
mited). It appeared that the 'Warrant Finance
Company had some extensive interest in the Na•
tional Land Company (Limited). The latter com-
pany was ordered to be wound up, and defendant
was appointed liquidator. Plaintiff, who was one
of the clerks in the office of the Warrant Finance
Company, had been employed by the defendant
in doing some work in connection with the
National Land Company, and for this he charged.
Plaintiff stated that he had done the work in ques-
tion during office hours, but he was obliged to stay
late in order to do his general work.
Mr. Butler Rigby, for the defendant, called his
client to show that although he was the liquidator
he was a liquidator without fees.
His Honour held that as the work had been dons
the inference was that it must be paid for. There
had been a certain agreement put in under which
the plaintiff was to perform work upon the order of
the directors of the Finance Company, and of the
superior officers, but that clearly meant the work of
that company and not extra labour. Plaintiff would
have a verdict with costs.
Mr. Rigby gave notice of appeal.

POLICE 11VTELLIGENCE.-THIS DAY.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

IMPORTANT TO THE KEEPERS OF HORSES.—Mr•
Henry Rain, carrier of Eltham, Kent, appeared
before Mr. Knox, to answer the complaint of the
Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals, of causing a horse to be ill-treated by
being worked in an unfit state, and a man in his
employ, named M'Lean, was charged with cruelty
to the horse by working it.

Inspector Temperley, of the Royal Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, proved
seeing APLean driving the horse, which was at-
tached to a van containing furniture, and noticing
chat it was very lame he examined it, and found
that it had a disease of the foot of long standing,
and that it appeared to be in great pain, and on
speaking to M'Lean about it he said that his
master, Mr. Rain, knew its condition.
The defendant Rain said that he worked the
horse under the advice of his farrier, who said that
working it a little would do it good.
Mr. Cherry, the Government veterinary surgeon,
proved examining the horse in the Green-yard, and
said that it was very lame of both hind legs and and
fore foot from a disease of long standing.
Mr. Knox said that the defendant Rain had said
that he was recommended to work the horse.

Mr. Cherry said it was a most improper recom-
mendation, and it was cruel to work a horse in
such a state, and no properly-qualified veterinary
surgeon would give such a recommendation. The
horse might be cured, but it would take a long
time to do so. It was a curious circumstance, but
nevertheless true, that a horse with a diseased fore-
foot did not fall away like one that had a disease of
the hind foot, and therefore persons were often led to
suppose that they did not suffer so much pain in
consequence.

The defendant, Rain, said the horse should b°
turned out, and not worked till it was sound. ne
had been guided by the advice given him.
Mr. Cherry said the officer, Temperley, bad
told him that other horses of Mr. Rain's were lo
a bad state.
Mr. Knox said as the defendant, Rain, would
have heavy expenses to pay, he should only order
him to pay the costs, £1 35., and M'Lean would be
discharged.
FORTY SHILLINGS FOR NOTHING.—Mr. Jolla
Geary, of Queen-street, Marylebone, was charged
before Mr. Knox with being drunk and incapible
of taking care of his horse and trap in Tottenhara-
court-road.
Police-constable Phillip Fuller, 481 A—L34
night I saw the defendant in a cart in the Totteu-
ham-court-road, and as he was drunk and stopping
the traffic, I was obliged to take him into ousted,'

Mr. Knox—What became of the trap ?
Constable—l took it home.

Mr. Knox—What is the defendant ?
Defendant—l am a gentleman.
Mr. Knox—l am glad to hear it, as you will 13°
able to pay a fine.

Defendant-1 had been with a friend, a publiestli
to llarlesden-green, and I only took two glasses
spirits all day. I daresay the constable might lia'r3
thought I was drunk, but I was not. I have beell
a tradesman of Marylebone for 30 years, and $Olll
never before a magistrate before.
Mr. Knox—You might have run over some clue.
You will have to pay 40s.
Defendant—Forty shillings for nothing ?
The defendant paid the fine, but very reluctantly'
