Domat, with his usual clearness, points out the duties of the
usufructuary, which are, 1. To make an inventory of the things subject
to the usu-fruct, in the presence of those having an interest in them.
2. To give secur-ity for their restitution; when the usufruct shall be
at an end. 3. To take good care of the things subject to the usufruct.
4. To pay all taxes, and claims which arise while the thing is in his
possession, as a ground-rent. 5. To keep the thing in repair at his own
expense. Lois Civ. liv. 1, t. 11, s. 4. See Estate for life.
