1Opinion of the CourtKing, J.

This is an action to recover the amount which the plaintiff, a professional bondsman, paid the state as a surety on a recognizance, originally in the sum of $4000, entered into by the defendant’s son Rosario, as principal, and conditioned on Rosario’s appearance at the criminal session of the Superior Court to answer to a charge of bigamy and abide the order or judgment of the court thereon. The recognizance, unlike a bond, was signed by neither the principal nor the surety. 6 Am. Jur. 91, § 71. It was taken by an assistant clerk of the Superior Court on May 11,1955.
