EFT. Replevin for bull which plaintiff testified he
lost the Goth OF October 1s7otrom his pasture and
which was of the Devon breed, and one year old at
the time. ..... ---...-... ...-t
Defendant denied that the bull ever was the prop
entitled him because he detendant found the animal
OH his premises doing damage, and that he distran
ed him; that he had a lien on the animal for the
damage and keeping, which was thirty-seven days,
aid for expenses in advertising. Plaintiff testified
that he rendered defendant $40 for damages, ETC.
Defendant introduced testim ony tending to show
that such an animal would consume 30 pounds OF
hay per day, and that hay was worth at that time
$24 per ton. There was some conflict of testimony
as to the identity of the animal
The presiding Judge found that the property was
in Moshier, the plaintiff, but that he not at the
time entitled to possession and that. therefore, his
decision would be with the defendant for 81 damages
and costs. But he thou ght from the evidence that
the damage and money expended by defendant in
keeping said animal amounted to $2s, and remarked
that II plaintiff paid that amount he should not or
der return.
