farm of tom leopard which is better known as the richard rae place on the 10th of whitchurch where a pair of bay mares were ordered to bo shot on the assump tion that one animal had a ring bone and its working mate a flat pair of front feet evidently a flat on a horse is more serious thin a flat on a car which can bo fixed for 50c tor in the case of the horse it carried with it iu this instance the sentence of death assuming that the inspector was all powerful and that his edict carried the same finality as a decree from the supreme court or house of lords the owner caused the animals to be loaded in a truck starting for toronto and harris glue works stopping at stouffville constable pugh was called by the trucker to look over the carcasses of the con demned team tho cop was amazed that a pair of mares in the con dition of these horses should be condemned to the glue factory and right there intercepted the trip to the city the constable declared that if those horses were liable to b sentenced in such manner titer just wasnt a ghost of a chance for one half the horses in the neighbor hood escaping the glue pot if ever that humane society ofiicer got his blinkers on them to substantiate his opinion the cop permitted three citizens whose judgment on horse flesh is not to be mentioned here looked them over being a local bank manager the town solicitor and ye editor fortunately for the cop other mature and expert opinion was obtained from s t boden- distel vs all were agreed that the pair of steeds looked contented and well fed no sores and while the vs detected flaws he saw no reason for the animals forfeiting their lives whatever they were he said fit for work in fair con dition and in good flesh auctioneer silversides said the animals would realize 5150 under the hammer and even more next spring they are 10 and 13 years old after all this opinion constable pugh felt justified in ordering tho horses returned to the farm leopard admitted that the loss of his team would have been a real hardship but what the public want to know is why an officer of the humane society should come here and give such orders farmers mistake them for officers of the law and as in this instance proceeded to meekly obey the order an explana tion is surely due from the organization rev mr mcewcn purchased a new durant car last week mrs wm carruthers spent a few days in
