THE LAW OF LOST PROPERTY.

What ought the finder of a lost article to
do? Most people will give ready answer.
He should do his best to discover the owner
and restore the lost property to him. But
this standard or moral duty being imperfectly
recognized by the law, it will be interesting to
review the decisions on the subject.
, The finder need not take charge of the lost
property. There is no legal duty on him to do
it, but if he does take it into his possession he
then becomes a depositary, and is bound to
keep it for the owner and restore it to him
when known. How long he must keep it, or
what efforts he should make to find the owner,
have not been laid down.
If the finder does not restore the property
upon discovering the owner, does he commit
theft ? This depends on whether he knew, or
had reasonable means of knowing, who the
owner was at the time of finding. 1t has been
held that the finder Of pocket-book, having
the owners name legibly written Oh it, is a
thief if he conceals and appropriates the mon
ey; but if there is nothing to indicate the
owner, he does not become thief in law by so
doing.
The owner may at any time reclaim his
property, and if the. finder refuses to give it
up, can recover it or the value of 1t from him.
But as against any one but the owner the
finders title is good.
Nnen Is lnlIS TO De cOHSlueIeu sS lOSI
1t has been said in several cases that money
or other property laid down and forgotten is
not lost, in the legal sense of the word. The
proprietor of the shop, OF bank, or the place
where it is left is the proper person to take
charge of it, and those who pick up the prop
erty have no right to keep it. On the other
hand, it has been held that where conductor
found money in railway car, whose owner
could not be ascertained, he had good title
to the money. p. ".-e
Is the finder entitled to be paid for his trou-
BILE and expense? He need not take charge of
it, and it seems that if he does so he must look
only to the gratitude and good feeling of the
owner for reward.
What if a reward be offered There is no
doubt that any one who, seeing the offer, sets
