1Opinion of the CourtRobinsow, J.

The plaintiff claims that he caused a mare to be served by a stallion kept by defendants, and that, in consequence of negligence and want of skill on the part of the defendants’ groom, an injury to the mare resulted, from the effects of which she died. The defendants deny that any inj ury was caused by want of care and skill on their part, and aver that, if the mare sustained any injury from the service in question, the plaintiff caused the same, or contributed thereto.
