Cases Decided by Courts of the United States of America are Cited from the

the Admiralty Court holding the ship liable where the
owner could not be sued at law (b).

There are several decisions of

Where a yacht was placed by her owners in the hands of an agent for sale, and whilst in his possession, and owing to his negligence in not striking her top gear she drove from her moorings and injured another ship, it was held that the yacht was liable. The proceedings being in rem, Dr. Lushington said that the common law doctrine as to the non-liability of her owner for the negligence of an independent contractor had no application (c).

charter.

Where a vessel was chartered to the French Govern- Ships under ment, and whilst in tow of a steam-ship, which the charterers ordered her to employ, by the fault of the steam-ship, went foul of a third vessel, Dr. Lushington held that, the proceedings being in rem, the maritime lien for damage attached, notwithstanding any prior contract between the owner and a third party. "It is impossible," he said, "that because a person has entered into a voluntary contract by which he is finally led into mischief, that

(b) Besides the cases mentioned below, it was so held in The Neptune the Second, 1 Dods. Ad. 467; and The Girolamo, 3 Hag. Ad. 169, where the vessel was condemned for the fault of a compulsory pilot. These decisions were, however, not followed in subsequent cases: The Protector, 1 W. Rob. 45; The Maria, ibid. 95. In The Druid, 1 W. Rob. 391, Dr. Lushington said that the liability of the ship, and the responsibility of the owners, were convertible terms. In the case of one who charters or hires a vessel, and works her with his own crew, this dictum must be taken to refer to the charterer, in his character of pro hac vice owner, and not to the actual owner. In America it has been held that the liability of the ship arises without regard to the ownership see The China, 7 Wall. 53; The R. B. Forbes, 1 Sprague, 328; and The Cumberland, Stuart's

Vice. Ad. Rep., Lower Canada,
(1858), 75. In Ireland the same has
been held by Townsend, J.: see The
Mullingar, 26 L. T. N. S. 326. Under
the Act incorporating the company
owning a ship sued in Admiralty,
the company could not be sued with-
out notice. It was held by Town-
send, J., that notice to the company,
in proceedings against their ship in
Admiralty, was not necessary. He
said that in Admiralty it is the res
against which the suit is instituted;
this was shown by the old forms
of procedure in which the ship was
always called "the party impug-
nant or proceeded against in the
suit." "In Admiralty," he said,
the owners could not be said to be
liable except in a loose and popular
sense; Cf. 10 Amer. Law Rep. 432,
as to the personification of the ship.
