Mx, EDITOR, -For reasons easily explained,
I have said nothing in reftitation'ef the asset -
Con Of Mr. David Walker some time ago, in
relation to horses belonging to Mr. Saeob Mc.
dee, Jr. .No deabb Mr. Walker's opinion
ought to be of some weight; he being Ileeve
of Tuakersmith.Unfortunately, however,
Itis opinien is bakd on, hearsay.: His olfae-
tory orgadwaS not much injured by the bad
smell his neighbors told him abut. Hearing
different reports about these horses; 1 went .
-for my own satisfaction, unsolicited by say
person, anal am under the firm cenvieblon
that it would led almost impossible for any
animal to cut the horses in that manner,-
enkoh eat :was perfectly smooth and clean -one
about four and tho °that about five inches in
length, almost exactly in the satin spot on
the left side of each- horse. Both cuts' were
nearly perpendicular, ono a little on the fu.
elino. I lave shoiyn1s amoral pons how:•
it could blo catch-Mgthe horse by
tho mane on tltb top of the heed with the left
band, the right would roach Rent the spot .•
where each horse was cut, I feel satisfied
that no animal coulcl possibly out so smooth
and clean, unless she learned the ail of sur.
gery. In the interest of truth and justice I
melte this statement, and I am willing, if no.
eessary, it testify to it on oath.
