— Per Curiam :

¶1When it was decided by this Court, in Waters’s Appeal, 10 Weekly Notes of Cases, 146, that such a condition as the one set'forth in this bond was valid, so as to bind the principal, it necessarily followed that the sureties were also bound. It remained in the custody of the city, and the acceptance of the new bond and *343sureties could not have the effect of discharging the sureties.

¶2Decree affirmed and appeal dismissed at the cost of the appellants.
