Ox Case on Trial, The afternoon session of the court was occupied with the ease of Charles E. Skinner of Mansfield against Hy- man Chasen of this city, alleging a breach of warranty in the selling of an_ox. Mr. Skinner, the first witness, testi- fied to a conversation held between himself and Chasen last fall about a pair of oxen. Chasen, who then own- ed the animals and had them in his possession, wanted $6i0 for them, but this was more than the witness wanted to pay, and it was finally agreed that $150 should be paid for them. At the time of the sale, the witness stated, he noticed one of the oxen looked bloated and he called Chasen's attention to the fact. The latter stated that he had just watered the animals and this was the cause of the seemingly bloated ap- pearance. At this time Chasen said he would guarantee the oxen to be all right. The oxen were driven to the home of the witness, where they were turned loose in the yard. That night it was noticed that one of the oxen was sick and would not eat. From this time up to the time it was killed the animal could not be used because of its con- dition. The day after the sale the new owner notified Chasen that the animal wae not as it was supposed to be and that he wanted the animals taken back. Chasen was offered $5 if ®.e would take them back, but this he refused to do. A number of witnesses were pro- duced by the defendant. Most of these told the same story in regard to the health of the animals before Chasen had purchased them. Chasen told the court that he did not make any guar- antee, as he did not have the animals in his possession more than five min- utes, but he did admit telling thel plaintiff what he knew of them, which | was what somebody else had told him, Mrs. Ogoshowitez, whose husband owned the oxen before Cashen pur-| chased them, got on the stand and stated that she could not talk the anguage bur she understood it all t. Tt was impressed upon her that she was doirg all right, as she an- | swered the questions as they were asked, but she still held to the belief that she could not speak the language. Judgment for Plaintiff. After all the testimony and the at- torneys in the case had made their ar cuments, the judge gave judgment of $40 and costs in favor of the plaintiff. Court was then adjourned for the day. HAMPTON FIELD TRIALS. Eighteenth Annual Clubhouse — Board Elected.
