In case any warrant issued by the Comptroller General shall be lost and fails to reach the person to whom it has been mailed, the Comptroller General shall, upon satisfactory proof to him of the fact of such loss and upon receiving a bond in an amount double the sum for which the warrant was drawn, issue to such person a duplicate warrant for the sum for which the original warrant was drawn. The duplicate warrant shall state upon its face that it is a duplicate and payable only in case the original warrant is unpaid. Such duplicate warrant, duly endorsed, shall be sufficient for payment by the State Treasurer.
