. Bull That Killed • Man Found Qullty, gentaneed to Doath and Cxacutset—Fat# of • Cock That Was Charged WHh Having Laid an Egg. Among the many curious customs of tba past U recorded a singular feature of the Juriaprudeuco of the middle sgee. whan animals were Indicted for mjuriea Inflicted upon human beings. The custom was not abolished in France until the middle of the eight oenth century, and the French court records show that at least ninety-two trials took place between 1130 and

1741.

There la some Biblical precedent tor haae proceeding*, for In the twentyAral chapter of’Exodus one finds, "If an ox gore a mac or a woman that they die, then the ox ehall be stoned and hla fleeb shall not be eaten." An early Instance of th# custom waa | In 1814, when a bull escaped from a farmyard In a village In France In the duchy of Valois aud gored a man to death. The Count of Vatola, being Informed of the cue*, directed that the bull be captured and formally prosecuted for homicide. This wae done and evidence was | who had sees the o killed. The bull was thereupon sentenced to suffer death, which wM Inflicted by atiengulathm. after which la suspended from a tree by the hind lege. In USE a eow was executed In the square of Falalae for having closed the death of a child, and three years aa condemned to death at DUoa for having killed a man. In 1467 a sow and her six young one* re tried at Levegny on the charge having killed and partially eaten a child. The eow was convicted and death, but the Wttl* one* acquitted oo tbe ground of tbeir extreme youth and Inexperience, the bad example of their mother and the abeence of direct evidence of their baring partaken of tba atrocious feast On* of th* moot groteeque of theee trials took place In Basel when a farmyard cock was tried on tba abebarge of having laid an egg. It contended tn support of the prosecution that eggs laid by cocks were of InwarimahU worth tor uee In certain magical preparations, that a aorcerrr would rather possess a cock's egg than the elixir of life and that Satan employed witches to batch each
