No ballast, timber, coal, produce, or cargo of any descrip-

accrue to any such cargo or produce, by the elements or
otherwise, during the time it may so remain on the wharf. -

All goods shall be landed on the aforesaid wharf or
landing-place, or brought thereon for shipment, and shall be
placed as the wharfinger or his deputy may direct; and no
goods or any articles are to be placed on the wharf so as to

the mooring posts or rings on such wharf. -

hereinafter assigned to them: “Wharfinger” shall mean
