Before the clerk of this municipality shall enter upon his duties, he shall first
execute an official bond, payable to this municipality with some guaranty or surety
company authorized to do business in this state as his surety, or with two or more
good and sufficient sureties, the bond to be in such sum as the mayor and board of
aldermen may fix by an order on their minutes, conditioned as required for the marshal's
bond in section 16, of said Chapter 298, of the Laws of Mississippi, 1890, and the same shall be liable
and subject to the same legal proceedings that the marshal's bond is liable and subject
to under said section 16, which bond, if sufficient, shall be approved by the mayor and board of aldermen
and copied in their minutes and the original bond shall be taken and preserved by
the mayor along with the writing containing the oath taken and subscribed by the clerk
the mayor to deliver the same to his successor in office if still in force, who shall
do the like. The clerk shall also before entering upon his official duties, take and
subscribe an official oath as to his official duties, same to be in substantially
the same form, as the official oath required of the mayor of this municipality under
the laws of this town now in force.
