A description of the animal(s) was provided to the Justice of the Peace who would then have two people appraise the value of the animal(s). Finally, the Justice of the Peace for the Township would have all of this information recorded by the county clerk. In some cases, the owner of the animal(s) would come forth to claim his livestock.
