TitleDeposition: John Howe, Cambridge, cattle dealer Accused with others of getting money under false pretences from Thomas Pawley, Dowsdale, Lincolnshire, farmer at Fletton Bridge Fair (October 2nd 1848). Pawley bought for £9 a black mare which he almost immediately sold for £2 to a claygringer, on the advice of Howe who said the animal was glandered and Pawley's neighbours would laugh at him if he took her home. Later Pawley saw Howe sell her for £5.10.0 to Henry Redhead, shoemaker, Wimblington, Cambs. (A veterinary surgeon, William Richardson, Peterborough, said the mare had paralysis of the spine and 'strangles' and was quite valueless).
