Mr R. Byron Miller appeared for the defence. Isabella Turner, sworn, deposed that she lived at Tankerville, Piper's River; on the 4th Feb ruary there were twelve ,head of her cattle in the Public Pound of Newnham ; witness went to the poundkeeper (defendant) while on her way to Launceston, and asked who had im- pounded them; and he replied, Thomas Row- ley; witness asked if there were damages, and defendant said there was 1s per head to pay; witness, on her return, asked defendant for a replevy bond, but) he did not make any offer to give her one ; witness asked defendant for a repleven bond for 1s per head, but he refused to give it, as the damages were not extraordinary : witness told him that she had no money with her, and would leave one of the cattle as a pledge; defendant made out a bill of £1 16s, and told her he must have security on the cow left, to be sold at Newstead if not redeemed; afterwards called upon defendant to redeem the cow, but the cow was not at the pound; defen- dant asked her if she wanted to redeem the cow, and witness replied, "Yes, with the bond, and in no other way; protested against defendant selling the cow, and told him she would take proceedings against him if he did; witness saw the cow sold at Newstead. To Mr Miller-I have no order for protecting my private earnings, and am a married woman. The Bench ruled that the charge ought to have been laid by complainant's husband, and therefore dismissed the case.
