If the finder of a thing knows or suspects who is the owner, he must, with reasonable diligence, give such owner notice of the finding; and if such finder fails to do so he is liable in damages to the owner, and has no claim to any reward offered by such owner for the recovery of the thing, or to any compensation for trouble or expenses.
