, Ross, J.;Two objectioDsare urged by the demurrer to the amended complaint in this case. One is that there is no allegation to the effect that the defendant had any knowledge of the dangerous character of the cow which, iUs alleged, inflicted, the injuries complained of. But the complaintaJleges ,that the defendant negligently permitted the cow to tr6$paas anel, ,mla.wfully to be upon the premises of the plaintiffs, and that while so trespassing the injuties were inflicted. Under such circumstances it is not necessary to allege that the owner had knowledge of the vicio\ls, propensity ,of theanirrial.. Van Leuven v. liyke, 1 N.
