Talk:Trover

too long

seems longer that the max suggested by the style book. Piratejosh85 (talk) 20:24, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Undefined terms

In the section "Trover as an extension of detinue and trespass", the jargon terms "bailor" and "bailee" are used. However, they are not defined anywhere! What do they mean? Without adequate definitions this section is useless. Hairy Dude (talk) 12:42, 13 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think warships transport many goods

Actions in trover were often applied to cases where chattels had been placed in bailment, such as goods transported on a ship (*Russian frigate* Shtandart pictured), which were lost, used or stolen.

I get it, it's a nice looking picture of a sailing vessel. But not all vessels are the same. This is a (replica of a) warship. The original carried predominantly naval guns, not goods.
