The alleged cruelty consisted in keeping an OK which is between 15 and 20 years of age. and as the warrant stated, in working the beast when it is thin in flesh. The trial lasted all day, and everything of a cruel nature that the prosecution could bring out was the very thin evidence that the animal had been driven with its mate once or twice with load of logs and that the animal was thin The court offered to file away the papers if Hulett would pay costs. but the old gentleman, who conducted his own defense, declined to do this. and the justice ordered fine of $1O and costs, from which the defendant appealed to the Superior court at Pittsfeld in July.
