Read the facts and the question and then choose the best answer.
A buys 50 sacks of grain from B, a grain merchant. A asks B to keep the sacks until he can arrange for transport to take delivery. B agrees and stores the sacks in an old timber shed that has no locks. That night an intruder gains access to the shed through a hole in B's fence and steals the grain.
Is B in breach of a term imposed by law into his contract with A that, as a bailee, he must take care of A's goods?
