§ 59. Duty of court of appeals to direct action on forfeiture of bond
given by clerk of court. If the bond given by the clerk of the court of
appeals, before entering upon his duties, as prescribed by law, is
forfeited by a breach of its condition, the court of appeals must, by
order, direct an action to be brought thereon. The money recovered must
be applied, under the direction of the court of appeals, to indemnify
the persons aggrieved by the breach, in proportion to their respective
losses, and to make good any other loss, occasioned by the breach.
