included. This definition is in no way
intended to change the present law, merely to
clarify it,

(F)   WAREHOUSEMAN.

"WAREHOUSEMAN" MEANS A PERSON ENGAGED IN THE
BUSINESS OF STORING GOODS FOR HIRE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This definition is new language
added for purposes of clarity and conformity.
It repeats without substantive change the
definition of "warehouseman" contained in
§7—102 of this article for purposes of Title 7
of this article, which title was derived in
part from the Uniform Warehouse Receipts Act.
Since the provisions of present Art. 14A (now
Subtitle 3 of this title) were once a part of
that Act, use of the term in Art. 14A would
appear to have been intended to have the
meaning stated in §7—102. See Official
Comment to §7-102.

(G)   WAREHOUSE RECEIPT.

"WAREHOUSE RECEIPT" MEANS A RECEIPT ISSUED BY A
PERSON ENGAGED IN THE BUSINESS OF STORING GOODS FOR HIRE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This definition is new language
added for purposes of clarity and conformity.
It repeats with no changes the definition of
"warehouse receipt" contained in §1—201(45) of
this article, which definition, in turn, was
derived from the Uniform Warehouse Receipts
Act. Since the provisions of present Art. 14A
(now Subtitle 3 of this title) were once a
part of that Act, use of the tern in Art. 14A
would appear to have been intended to have the
leaning stated in §1-201 (45). See Official
Comment to §§ 1—201 and 7—102.

GENERAL REVISOR'S NOTE

For non—criminal provisions generally related to
bills of lading and warehouse receipts, see Subtitle 7 of
this article, "Maryland Uniform Commercial Code —
Documents of Title."
