CASES IN COURT e.
Justice Merriam will soon be recognized
, as authority on cases relating to anything
in the animal line, from boa constructors
to guinea pigs, If the citizens of Pasadena
who have grievances to air in the courts
will just keep up the pace that has been
set. He has wrestled with the deep
questions of law involved in the various
methods of restraining the rowing pro-
cllvities of hogs, COWS, dogs, chickens and
men with snakes in their boots. Whether
tne quietus was sought to be obtained
through the application of a dose of cold
iead TO the trespassing animal. or whether
not words were exchanged with the owner
thereof, Justice Merriam has generally
managed to find a punishment to fit the
crime But in this case although the
whole trouble grew out of the roaming
propensities of one of the feline species,
the direct cause of the action was black
eye decorating the features, not of the
| owner OF the cat that never came back,
but of the agent or proxy of said owner
for consideration. Said consideration
was shining IS, which was to be rendered
on delivery of the cat dead or alive.
