Warrant against officer about to abscond.

73. Provided always, that if any commissioner, or other person acting on
behalf of the commissioners, shall make oath that he has good reason to
believe, upon grounds to be stated in his deposition, and that he does
believe, that it is the intention of any such officer as aforesaid to abscond,
the justice ... before whom the complaint is made may, instead of issuing his
summons, issue his warrant for bringing such officer before such two justices
as aforesaid, if the warrant be issued by a justice ...; but no person
executing such warrant shall keep such officer in custody longer than
twenty-four hours without bringing him before some justice ...; and the
justice ... before whom such officer may be brought may either discharge such
officer, if he think there is no sufficient ground for his detention, or order
such officer to be detained in custody so as to be brought before two justices
at a time and place to be named in such order, unless such officer give bail
to the satisfaction of such justice for his appearance before such justices to
