Brady, found guilty and fined 81 and
costs. amounting 10 $2.75
BY the President:
This matter of cruelty to horses by
high-checking is one of the worst
abuses which the Society has to con-
tend with. We have been calling
drivers attention to it for several
months with little or no results. We
have concluded to make examples OF
some of the culprits. Hence the case
mentioned in our Agents report. 1t
should he said that the offenders are
nearly all colored. There seems to be
abroad in the county, especially
among the colored gentry. an idea that
horse must have his head checked
high into the air to drive properly. 1t
is usually accomplished by the use OF
a small extra bit attached to an over
check, which continually irritates the
horses upper lip and the roof of his
mouth, We shall be Obliged to all
persons, who observe this abuse to re-
MORT il to us. Give names and address
of the offender. The reporters name

that may follow
We should like to give notice, for
probably the tenth time, that the So
ciety has nothing 10 do with the kill
ing of perfectly well animals. More
over that the city police authorities
are charged with the removal of dead

Society aims 10 do is to see that all
animals are properly treated get a
