The defendant's sureties, upon a notice to the plaintiff of not less than two nor more than six days, shall justify before a judge, clerk of court or magistrate in the same manner as upon bail on arrest. Upon such justification the sheriff shall deliver the property to the defendant. The sheriff shall be responsible for the defendant's sureties until they justify or until justification is completed or expressly waived and may retain the property until that time. But if they, or others in their place, fail to justify at the time and place appointed he shall deliver the property to the plaintiff.
