Rules as to recovery from sureties

All the remedies prescribed by this Act in case of revenue defaulters may be employed against their sureties, and it shall be lawful for any Collector, or other officer empowered by the Collector in that behalf, to enforce the same, simultaneously with, or either previously or subsequently to, their enforcement against the principal; so, nevertheless, that no more than the total sum in arrears, and interest with costs and charges, shall be realized from both.
