It was to be delivered either at Gibraltar or Messina, as the shipper might determine--probably on advices by steamer, before the ship should reach her destination.

She was to stop, as we have seen, at Madeira, which would give ample time for the decision.
The bill of lading for the 225 kegs of nails has a similar indorsement, except that it is asserted that the whole of the property belongs to subjects of the King of Italy.

It is not sworn that the property belongs to Castarelli, the consignee, and for aught that appears, Castarelli is the agent of the shipper to receive this consignment on his, the shipper's account.

The presumption being, that notwithstanding a consignment in due form by an enemy shipper to a neutral, the property is enemy's property, until the contrary be shown.

The consignment alone does not show the property to be vested in Castarelli, and the certificate does not indicate him as the owner.
