Harry W. Wormly Sworn.
There on Warrens farm York leo va. I bought a horse of Dr Slerting last Sat. week. Bought him in Williamsburg at Auction. Paid $60.00. Here is a writing for it. Wilson was Auctioneer. The horse was knocked down at 61 dollars. I paid the amount. Wilson said he was a sound horse at anything. Didn't say anything about disease at all. I took him and carried him home. He was not sound. He was diseased, He was not sound. Sunday morning - the next day, I carried him to water to drink and yellow stuff run out of his nose. The Horse died Monday. He was warranted good to work at anything plough, cart, or anywhere
