The following is an extract from The Lisburn Standard dated 13th April, 1889
Breach of warranty case.
Lancelot Magee of Ballinderry sued Thomas Conway of Aghacarnon, for £3, loss and damage sustained by reason of defendant having sold to plaintiff a mare which defendant warranted would draw her best quietly, whereas said mare would not cart or draw her best quietly.
Mr. Lockhart appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Wilkins for the defendant.
After hearing evidence as to the ownership of the mare, His Honour dismissed the case, on the grounds that the action had been wrongly brought against the defendant.
The Court then adjourned.
