So where articles are sent unsolicited, as bottles of wine by an Unsolicited r LlC I OS enterprising tradesman, in the hope of orders; or literary matter to a journal by an unknown contributor; or, as in Howard v. Harris (I), a manuscript play to a theatrical manager; the recipient bailee will only be liable as a finder for wilful negligence as beyond mere loss from carelessness (m). But his duty will be enlarged, and he will become responsible for ordinary neglect, if he spontaneously and officiously propose to keep the goods (re); or if he change his character as bailee, by taking charge of the goods in consequence of any reward or lucrative contract (o). And it must be borne in mind that, to exempt a gratuitous bailee from liability, it is not sufficient merely to show that he has kept goods deposited with him, in the same manner as he kept his uwn; although this degree of care will, generally, repel the presumption of gross negligence (p). And where valuables or scrip are so deposited with bankers in No lien on locked boxes or sealed parcels for safe custody, the bailee has no such P08118, right to open the box or parcel, and the contents of such box are not subject to any lien for previous or subsequent debts of the customer; such having been deposited for custody and not by way of security (q).
