This section applies also to bonds given in connection with any appellate proceeding for the purpose of obtaining supersedeas or for any other purpose.
(2) A surety insurer may become surety upon administrators’, executors’, and guardians’ bonds; and in such cases there need be only one surety upon such bonds.
