416 ARTICLE 14A.
An. Code, sec. 21. 1910, ch. 406, sec. 21 (p. 51).
21. A warehouseman shall be liable for any loss or injury to the goods
caused by his failure to exercise such care in regard to them as a reasonably
careful owner of similar goods would exercise, but he shall not be liable,
in the absence of an agreement to the contrary, for any loss or injury to the
goods which could not have been avoided by the exercise of such care.
See notes to sec. 8.
An. Code, sec. 22. 1910, ch. 406, sec. 22 (p. 51).
22. Except as provided in the following section, a warehouseman shall
keep the goods so far separate from goods of other depositors, and from
other goods of the same depositor for which a separate receipt has been
issued, as to permit at all times the identification and re-delivery of the
goods deposited.
An. Code, sec. 23. 1910, ch. 406, sec. 23 (p. 51).
23. If authorized by agreement or by custom, a warehouseman may
mingle fungible goods with other goods of the same kind and grade. In
such case the various depositors of the mingled goods shall own the entire
mass in common, and each depositor shall be entitled to such portion
thereof as the amount deposited by him bears to the whole.
For a definition of " fungible goods," see sec. 58.
See art. 83, sec. 27.
An. Code, sec. 24. 1910, ch. 406, sec. 24 (p. 51).

the care and re-delivery of his share of such mass to the same extent and
under the same circumstances as if the goods had been kept separate.
An. Code, sec. 25. 1910, ch. 406, sec. 25 (p. 51).
25. If goods are delivered to a warehouseman by the owner or by a
person whose act in conveying the title to them to a purchaser in good
faith for value would bind the owner, and a negotiable receipt is issued
for them, they can not thereafter, while in the possession of the warehouse-
man, be attached by garnishment or otherwise, or be levied upon under an
execution, unless the receipt be first surrendered to the warehouseman,
or its negotiations enjoined. The warehouseman shall in no case be com-
pelled to deliver up the actual possession of the goods until the receipt is
surrendered to him or impounded by the court.
See art. 83, sec. 60.
An. Code, sec. 26. 1910, ch. 406, sec. 26 (p. 51).
26. A creditor whose debtor is the owner of a negotiable receipt shall
be entitled to such aid from courts of appropriate jurisdiction, by injunc-
tion and otherwise, in attaching such receipt or in satisfying the claim by
means thereof as is allowed at law or in equity, in regard to property which
cannot readily be attached or levied upon by ordinary legal process.
See art. 83, sec. 61.
