The defendant may, within three days after the service of a copy of the affidavit and undertaking give notice to the marshal that he excepts to the sufficiency of the sureties. If he fails to do so, he shall be deemed to have waived all objection to them. When the defendant excepts, the sureties shall justify on notice in like manner as upon bail on arrest. The marshal shall be responsible for the sufficiency of the sureties until the objection to them is waived, as above provided, or until they justify or new sureties are substituted and justified. If the defendant excepts to the sureties, he cannot reclaim the property, as provided in section 216 of this title.
