1Opinion of the Court
CHIJEF JUSTICE WILLIAMS
delivered the opinion op the court:
Appellant borrowed from appellee a mare to ride some three miled in the country, and instead of doing so, put the mare in a buggy, and drove her some twelve or fourteen miles, to a neighboring town, taking with him another man. The mare was unharnessed by the landlord, and ridden down to water by his son, a small boy, and then put into the stable and fed, without any attention or care by the appellant, and next morning was found dead, being much swollen, which, in the opinion of several witnesses, indicated that her disease was colic.
