ANCIENT LAW.

I. Where a Horse, or any other Animal, which has been Tied Up, is Removed, or Injured, in any way, Without the Consent of the Owner.

If any person should free a horse, or any other animal belonging to another, from its halter, or from its hobbles, without the knowledge of the owner, he shall pay him a solidus. If said horse, or other animal, should die, in consequence, said person shall give its owner another of equal value. If he should use said animal to travel, or to work with elsewhere, without the knowledge of the owner, he shall be compelled to give him another of equal value; provided the owner should find him on that day, or on the following one. If said animal should not be found by the third day, the person who took it shall be deemed guilty of theft.

II. Where any Animal which has been Loaned, is Used against the Direction or Will of the Owner, or is Abused.

Anyone who, contrary to the wishes or understanding of the owner, abuses an animal which he has borrowed, by driving it too fast or too far, or by overloading it, shall pay a solidus for every ten miles traversed by said animal. If they should have gone less than ten miles, the distance, as well as the work, shall be estimated, and compensation shall be made accordingly. If said animal should be crippled, or killed, it shall belong to him who committed the injury, and he shall give one of equal value to the owner.
