The master of any
passenger ship may refuse to receive on board thereof any person who by reason of drunkenness or
otherwise is in such a state, or misconducts himself in such a manner, as to cause annoyance or injury
to passengers on board, and if any such person is on board, may put him on shore at any convenient
place; and a person so refused admittance or put on shore shall not be entitled to the return of any fare
he has paid.
