any person interested in the execution of such trust shall make
appear to the chancellor, that it is necessary for the safety of
those interested in the execution of such trust, that the trustee
or trustees should give bond and security for the due execution
of the trust, it shall and may be lawful for the chancellor to
order and direct that such bond be given by the trustee or trus-
tees, on or before a day by the chancellor to be appointed ; and
if bond, with such security as may be approved by the chan-
cellor, shall not be given by such trustee or trustees, agreeably
to such order, then the chancellor may displace such trustee or
trustees, and appoint one or more trustee or trustees in his or
their stead, who shall give bond and security, to be approved by
the chancellor, for the due execution of the trust; and all bonds
taken in virtue of this power shall be made payable to the
state, and shall be filed and kept by the register in chancery,
and also by him recorded, and upon any breach of the condi-
tion, suit may be brought by any person interested, either upon
the original bond or a copy of the record, and the plea of non
est factum shall not be received in such suit, unless it be veri-
fied by affidavit of the defendant or defendants.
