In marine insurance. The arrival of a vessel meuns an arrival for purposes of business, requiring an entry and clearance and stay at the port so long as to or to ascertain the stute of the mar-, being driven in by an adverse wind g again as soon as it changes. 9 372, See, also, 1 Ware, 281; 1 Mason, 2 Sum. 422; 2 Cush. 453; 15 Fed. ep. el arrives at a port of discharge when ies, or is brought, to a place where it is into discharge her, and where is the usnal stomury place of discharge. When a vessel Ired to one or two ports, and sails for one, terminates on her arrival there. If a yesnsured to a particular port of discharge, and tined to discharge cargo successively at two mt Wharves, docks, or places, within that, each being a distinct place for the delivery of the risk ends when she has been moored uty-four hours in safety at the first place. But is destined to one or more places for the de- 'y of cargo, and delivery or discharge of a porof her cargo is necessary, not by reason of haying reached any destined place of delivery, ub as & necessary and usual nautical measure, to able her to reach such usual and destined place ‘delivery, she cannot properly be considered as ng arrived at the usual aud customary place discharge, when she is atanchor forthe purpose of using such means as will better enable ber reach it. if she cannot get to the destined and ual place of discharge in the port because she is odvep, and must be lightered to get there, and, to d in prosecuting the voyage, cargo is thrown erboard or put into lighters, such discharge does make that the place of arrival; it is only a opping-place in the voyage. When the vessel is red to a particular port of discharge, arrival in the limits of the harbor does not terminate the risk, if the place is not one where vessels are discharged and voyages completed. The policy ‘povers the vessel through the port navigation, as ‘well a8 on the open sea, until she reaches the destined place.”
