If neither of the parties litigant shall give such bond as allowed within ten days after the seizure, the officer having possession of the property shall sell the same, in the mode prescribed by law for selling property levied upon under writs of fieri facias, if the property be liable to waste or decay, or if subject to extraordinary expense in preserving the same, and hold the proceeds subject to the future orders of the court. If the property be not liable to waste or decay, or be not expensive to keep, it shall be held by such officer, unless the court or the chancellor shall order it to be sold, as may be done when it is thought best to do so. If such property shall be sold, either by the officer seizing it, in the state of case provided for when he may sell it, or by order of the court or chancellor, the proceeds of such sale shall be subject to the orders of the court or chancellor, as to their safe keeping or investment, during the litigation. If the property seized be liable to immediate waste or decay, it shall be sold immediately. If the defendant do not give bond to retain the property within five days from its seizure, and the complainant do not do so within five days after defendant’s failure, either party may, before sale of the property, give the required bond and receive the property, or after sale may give such bond and receive the proceeds.
