alliston simcoe county saturday attracted a large crowd of men from all parts of the rural section the horses were exceptionally fino animals brought from western canada by c o herron who has disposed of horses to the farmers of alliston dis trict on previous occasions and acquired a reputation for absolute probity in handling draught animals the carload offered for sale satur day consisted of eighteen animals mostly mares there were blacks bays and greys matched teams heavy draught teams and light draught teams as well as light and heavy draught single animals all were thoroughly broken a fact pro ven by having them hitched to a wagon and driven around town numerous farmers wanted one or more of these horses but refused to pay the price the first animal put up was sold to the stevenson farms alliston for 190 but this was the only horse of the lot sold all after noon although auctioneer wren coaxed the crowd to run up the bids and did everything possible to get the admirers of horseflesh interest ed enough to pick up some of these animals none of which were stated to be more than six years of age one big bay horse was bid up to 120 but he was taken back to the stable and a team of heavy draught mares attracted bids up to 320 this pair was also taken to the barn mr herron stated that he had paid a stiff price in the west for these horses and after paying the transportation charges he had to get better prices than were offered here to clear himself monday the horses that were not sold were load ed in a cpr car and shipped to montreal mr herron stating thai should ho not be able to sell them advantageously there he would take them on to nova scotia where he was sure he could get his own out of them when the bids made on these horses put- up for sale in the usual way saturday were not accepted there was considerable comment among the crowd many men being of the opinion that unless a reserve bid had been announced a vendor could not refuse the highest bid the legislature of this province has never enacted a measure deal ing wholly and explicitly with auc tion sales but a couple of clauses in the sale of goods act apply and deal with the matter under discus sion subsection b of section 50 of this act reads a sale is complete when the auctioneer announces its completion by the fall of a hammei or in tiny other customary manner and until any announcement is made any bidder may retract his bid subsection c of the same sec tion reads when a sale is not noti fied to be subject to a right to bid on behalf of the seller it shall not be lawful for the sellar to bid him self or to employ any person to bid at such sale or for the auctioneer knowingly to take any bid from the seller or any such person and any sale contravening this rule may be treated as fradulent by the buyer and subsecion d states a sale may be notified to be subject to a re served or upset price and a right to bid may also be reserved expressly by or on behalf of the seller lastly subsection e of sec tion 5 0 of this act reads where a right to bid is expressly reserved but not otherwise the seller or any cue person on his behalf may bid at the auction death claims
