14.--(1) Whenever a fine is imposed upon any person resident in any house, and not being the householder within the meaning of this Ordinance, for any violation of the provisions of any Ordinance as to the sale of intoxicating liquors, every such fine or any part thereof, in case the same has not been recovered from the actual offender or in case the actual offender cannot be found or brought to trial, may be recovered from the householder by action or by summary warrant of distress, to issue out of the court by which such fine has been imposed and to be executed against the goods and chattels of such householder.
(2) The amount of every such fine, howsoever recovered from every such householder or voluntarily paid by him, may be recovered by such householder from the offenders primarily liable for the same in an action for money paid to his use.

In every case where personal service of a magistrate's summons against any householder for any offence against the provisions of this Ordinance cannot be effected, it shall be sufficient service to affix one copy thereof outside the house in respect of which such offence is charged, and to leave another copy thereof at the registered address or last-known place of abode or business of such householder, and, in case such householder does not appear according to the exigency of such summons, the magistrate may investigate the charge against such householder in his absence, and deal with the same in every respect as if such householder were present.
16. Whenever there are several persons householders in respect of the same house, by reason of being tenants in common or joint tenants, they shall each be equally liable to the provisions of this Ordinance, until such provisions have been complied with by one of such householders.
*As amended by Law Rev. Ord., 1923.
The rest of the text appears to be unrelated to the main content and seems to be a jumbled mix of words. As per the instructions, I will not attempt to make sense of it or include it in the output.390 ·
