Dangerous Nature
The senders of any dangerous articles will be held accountable for any damage arising therefrom, unless the contents shall have been declared at the time of delivery.
Fruit, fish, meat, poultry, and any other perishable articles not taken away within six hours after the arrival at the station to which they are consigned, may be forthwith sold by auction or otherwise, without notice to the sender or consignee; and payment or tender of the net proceeds of any such sale, after deduction of freight and expenses, shall be accepted as equivalent to delivery.
All empties not taken away within a month after arrival will be sold to defray expenses.
All goods not taken away will be subject to a general lien for money due, not only for the carriage of such goods and for wharfage and warehouse rent, but also for any general balance that may be due from the owner. And in case any goods should not be claimed within three calendar months after their arrival at the station to which they are consigned, they will be sold by auction or otherwise, and the proceeds applied towards satisfaction of such general lien and expenses.
All goods and merchandise, whether bonded or free, and all luggage, having arrived at its destination, shall be removed by the consignees from the platform and sheds within twelve working hours; and any free goods, merchandise, or luggage not removed by that time, may be stored at the risk and expense of the consignees or owners, and will become subject to such charges as may from time to time be fixed by the railway; and any bonded goods or merchandise which shall not be removed within the period aforesaid shall be subject to the payment of the sum of two shillings per ton per day until the removal of the same from the railway premises.
Any goods, merchandise, or luggage arriving at any station, which shall not be removed from the railway premises within twelve working hours, may be forwarded to Invercargill, at the expense of the consignee or owner, and there stored at his risk and expense.
N.B.—The above conditions apply to all parcels and goods received by the railway at their respective offices and warehouses, wherever situate.
All tolls and charges and warehousing charges must be paid immediately to the person duly authorized to receive the same.
