Stake rendered an important decision I
cattle buyers and sellers. Harry Cesar
sold steer to David l. Binkeley, which upo
being killed was found to be diseased. MI
Binkley sued Mr.. Gossard, and Justice j
Irwin Bitner decided in favor of Mr.. Binke
ley. Mr.. Gossard appealed, and the cour
reversed the judgment Judge Stake ruled
that if the steer had been sold to butche
for immediate domestic use then the selle
would have been responsible, but inasmuct
as it had been sold to a dealer not for i'm
mediate use then the purchaser took thu
steer at his own risk.
