A STARVED ANIMAL.
(To the Editor.) gjj. llight I ask if the City Council Ins not a law that owners of vehicles shall liave a number or name on them for reference if occasioa arises for same ? On Friday afternoon last when passing Xewton Road. Symonds Street end, I saw standing outside the hotel a cart with a most ill-fed, horse attached to it. The animal's ribs could be counted, many of the joints of the spine being very prominent, the skin rubbed off in. one or two places- It was one of. the moat wretched, ill-conditioned horses I have seen for a long time. I looked over the cart for number or name to report the matter to the Inspector, S.P.C.A., but could not find either number or name as a cine to owner or horse. I would very much have liked the inspector to have seen that horse. —I am, etc., L NOBLE.
