It appeared that Mr. Vickers had hired Mr. Cabler's wagon to haul three pigs from Rocketts up town, but falling out with the negro driver about the price to be paid for the trip, had beat him.

Mr. Cabler was required to give security in $500 to keep the peace, and the pigs were delivered to Mr. Vickers.
