If an order has been entered by the monthly county court creating or establishing the district, and giving it a name or designation, the bonds, when the district or petitioners for the district are appellants, may be made by the district in that name, to be signed by one (1) of the petitioners nominated for that purpose by the court, it being declared the duty of the court to nominate some of the petitioners for this purpose.
On any appeal from the circuit court to an appellate court, the name of the district, if it has been ordered established by the court, may in like manner be signed to any appeal bond, the circuit court nominating the petitioner to so sign it.
Nothing in this part shall be construed as excusing the giving of good security on any bonds for appeal, and the district shall be liable for any damages and costs adjudged against it on any appeal as well as the sureties on the bonds.
The oath provided by law for poor persons shall not be allowed in lieu of the bonds.
