Alleged Tni me .Statements Made By Dealer Result in Strange Suit. ANIMAL SICK AND DIES ■Damages Claimed f'>r Amount of Purchase I’rice and Veter inarians Fees. The legal phases of a line of un- j truthfulness which If not sanctioned has at least be.en tolerated since the i memory must be passed on by Judgej Scott in the city circuit court Tuesday, when he must settle the question as to ! whether or not statements made dur- I ing a "hoss trade" are binding, j Mr. N. M. Lipscomb is the plaintiff in this most unusual case. He is su ing Joseph Lassiter, who has dealt j jin horse flesh for lo, these many years. 1 Resolved, to Its final analysis, Mr. , Lipscomb charges Mr. Lassiter with making statements which resulted in i | his purchase of a stead from the lat ter. Those statements were untrue1 ! he says. Consequently he is suing for J120 which he paid for the horse, and for $7 additional which he says it cost j him to engage the service* of a vet erinarian to treat the animal. The ptatnUK ttadKM* ttws he bought the horse in question because he had been told that It was sound, kind and gentle. He realized that it "was'nt must for looks" but he thought plenty of food would remedy this defect, he having , been assured, he says, that with the exception of being a little shy on flesh the animal was in other wise In excellent physical condition. J Horse Died. j Accordingly, he says, the sale was ; made and he took his horse and started | for home. Shortly after ho got there i the animal got sick, or rather gave evi dence of an affliction from which It j was suffering at the time of purchase. A veterinarian was summoned but i could do nothing. The horse died. Mr. Lassiter's defence has not yet been made public hut It is rumored i that he will take the position that j no man has the right to accept a [horse-dealer's word unless It Is given i In writing. In buying a horse, Mr. ' Lassiter things the purchaser should ‘have both eyes open, listen to hut pay no heed to anything said, hut look, and ! decide all points for himself. | Mr. Lassiter things that a man who fails to observe these primeval rules of "horse trading” deserves all that he gets." 1 Only one other case of a similar . nature has ever been tried In Virginia. , In that Instance, the man who made tthe sale was held liable for damages.
