1928 SALES AND NOTICES. [ART. 83
1910. ch. 346, sec. 68 (p. 286).
71. Unless otherwise agreed, where goods are delivered to the
buyer, and he refuses to accept them, having the right so to do, he is
not bound to return them to the seller, but it is sufficient if he notifies
the seller that he refuses to accept them.
1910, ch. 346, sec. 69 (p. 286).
72. When the seller is ready and willing to deliver the goods, and
requests the buyer to take delivery, and the buyer does not within a
reasonable time after such request take delivery of the goods, he is
liable to the seller for any loss occasioned by his neglect or refusal to
take delivery, and also for a reasonable charge for the care and cus-
tody of the goods. If the neglect or refusal of the buyer to take
delivery amounts to a repudiation or breach of the entire contract, the
seller shall have the rights against the goods and on the contract here-
inafter provided in favor of the seller when the buyer is in default.
