So, also, where a servant stipulates to be exempted from particular duties that usually belong to his situation. 1466. Refusal of Duty. Should a Servant Refuse to perform any duty required from him, his right so to refuse will generally be determined by the usages prevailing among servants of a similar class. 1467. Seduction from Employment. A Servant being Seduced from the Employment of a master, the latter has a right of action against the seducer for losses sustained. 1468. Masters Responsible.
