J. S. Davis and Royle Ellis, both of Cassville, for appellant.
This is an action in replevin instituted in the court of B. F. Irby, justice of the peace of Jenkins township, Barry county; change of venue granted to J. A. Carney, justice of the peace of Mountain township; cause tried on the 22d day of February, 1936; verdict for the plaintiff. From this judgment defendant appealed to the circuit court and the cause was tried at the March term, 1936, resulting in a verdict and judgment for the plaintiff, and defendant duly appeals to this court.
The property involved is one bay horse, about eight years old, weight about 1,200 pounds, and of the value of $80.
Defendant assigns as error the refusal of the trial court to give his peremptory instruction offered at the close of plaintiff's case and at the close of all the evidence.
