This Is a sequel to the famous cattle case in which Dowell, William Tanner and the Halligans were involved several years ago. A judgment had formerly been secured against Dowel), but payment had not been made. Some time ago James Halligan went to Bedford and the case was tried in the Taylor cdurt and the judge had withheld his finding and judgment until this time.
