§ 310. Lien upon strays. Whenever any person shall have any strayed
horses, cattle, sheep, swine or other beast upon his inclosed land, or
shall find any such beast on land owned or occupied by him doing damage,
and such beast shall not have come upon such lands from adjoining lands,
where they are lawfully kept, by reason of his refusal or neglect to
make or maintain a division fence required of him by law, such person
may have a lien with priority over all other liens upon such beasts, for
so long as such person shall retain possession of such beasts, for the
damage sustained by reason of their so coming upon his lands and doing
damage, for his reasonable charges for keeping them, and all fees and
costs made thereon, and he may keep such beast until such damages,
charges, fees and costs are paid, or such lien is foreclosed, upon
complying with the provisions of this article relating thereto.
