Crosby v. 20 Fifth Avenue Hotel Co.
173 Misc. 604, 17 N.Y.S.2d 498
Opinion
A hotel is not chargeable as a bailee for a valuable antique left in a trunk where plaintiff did not give notice that the trunk contained anything but ordinary personal luggage. (Waters v. Beau Site Co., 114 Misc. 65; Magnin v. Dinsmore, 62 N. Y. 35.)
Judgment modified by reducing the amount thereof to the sum of seventy-five dollars, with costs, and as modified affirmed, with twenty-five dollars costs to the appellants.
All concur. Present — Hammer, Shientag and Noonan, JJ.
