157. Effect of mixture, without bailor's consent, when the goods cannot be separated If the bailee, without the consent of the bailor, mixes the goods of the bailor with his own goods, in such a manner that it is impossible to separate the goods bailed from the other goods and deliver them back, the bailor is entitled to be compensated by the bailee for the loss of the goods. Illustration A bails a barrel of Cape flour worth Taka 45 to B. B, without A's consent, mixes the flour with country flour of his own, worth only Taka 25 a barrel. B must compensate A for the loss of his flour.
