If the prisoner is admitted to bail, and fails to appear and surrender himself according to the conditions of his bond the judge, by proper order, shall declare the bond forfeited and order his immediate arrest without warrant if he be within the Virgin Islands. Recovery may be had on such bond in the name of the government of the Virgin Islands as in the case of other bonds given by the accused in criminal proceedings within the Virgin Islands.
