Primary Text
The deposit of effects made by travellers in
hotels or inns shall also be regarded as necessary. The
keepers of hotels or inns shall be responsible for them as
depositaries, provided that notice was given to them, or
to their employees, of the effects brought by the guests
and that, on the part of the latter, they take the
precautions which said hotel-keepers or their substitutes
advised relative to the care and vigilance of their effects.
