CRUELTY TO AN

AGED HORSE

WORKMEN'S. STORY

were

Remarkable ailegations made recently at Epping Police Court, when two officers of the R.S.P.C.A. were summoned for alleged cruelty in omitting to pro- vido a fit and suitable place for a sick and aged horse to live in; to provide suitable and 'sufficient food for the horse; and to give it necessary care, and attention.

The defendants were Richard Williams, Buckingham Road, Wan- stead, Essex, an inspector of the R.S.P.C.A., and Misa Ivy Evelyn Jones, of Snake's Lane, Woodford Green, honorary secretary of the West Essex and Woodford: Branch of the Society.

Mr. E. G. Knight prosecuted for: the Commissioner of Police. He said the horse, a mare 20 years old, belonged to a Mr. Harrison, an Ilford greengrocer. In August of last year it was seen in the street by Mr. Williams, who, after examining it, said he would like to take care of it, and have its teeth fled, as it appeared, unable to masticato its food,

The horse was taken to a field of rest at Woodford Wells, and, as it did not get on. Mr. Harrison at the end of a fortnight agreed not to take it away. Subsequent- ly the horse was removed to an- other field; and it remained there until November 10.

UNABLE TO RISE

On November 13 some workmen heard a horse neigh, and on mak- ing an investigation they found this horse, on the ground, among some withy stumps. It was ap- parently unable to rise and they were unable to get it up. seemed to be fixed and they saw that it had made a hole in its struggle to get up.

The men went to it day by day and did what they could. There was a stack of hay In the field, but, although this was sweet in the middle, the outside was sour and dirty from exposure to the weather, and unfit to 'ent.
