When the party whose property is sought to be placed in the hands of a receiver cannot be found within the State, then notice of the application to the party in possession of such property shall be sufficient. And when the property is abandoned and not in possession of anyone and the party claiming the property cannot be found within the State, then the appointment may be made without notice of the application. But whenever a receiver is appointed and the party claiming the property cannot be found within the State, notice of such appointment shall be forthwith given by publication or personal service without the State as prescribed by law in the case of a summons in a civil action.
