- "Sir William Jones has defined bailment to be 'a delivery of goods on a condition, express or implied, that they shall be restored by the bailee to the bailor, or according to his directions, as soon as the purpose for which they are bailed shall be answered.' He has again, in the closing summary of his essay, defined it in language somewhat different, as, 'A delivery of goods in trust, on a contract expressed or implied, that the trust shall be duly exercised and the goods re-delivered, as soon as the time or use for which they were bailed shall have elapsed or be performed.'"
