5.-(1) If the person so served with a summons does not appear before the magistrate at the time and place mentioned in the summons, or fails to show cause why he should not quit and deliver up possession of the premises, it shall be lawful for the magistrate to issue his warrant to any constable, commanding him to enter (by force, if needful) into the premises, and give possession of the same to the owner thereof or his agent: Provided always that entry, upon any such warrant, shall not be made at any time except between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.:
Provided also that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to protect any person on whose application any such warrant may be granted from any action which may be brought against him by any such tenant or occupier for and in respect of such entry and taking possession, where such person had not, at the time of granting the same, lawful right to the possession of the said premises.

7. In every case in which the person on whose application, or on whose behalf, any such warrant is granted had not, at the time of granting the same, lawful right to the possession of the premises, the obtaining of any such warrant as aforesaid shall be deemed a trespass by him against the tenant or occupier of the premises, although no entry may be made by virtue of the warrant; and, in case any such tenant or occupier will become bound with two sureties as hereinafter provided, to be approved of by the magistrate, in such sum as to him may seem reasonable (regard being had to the value of the premises and to the probable costs of an action), to sue the person on whose application, or on whose behalf, such warrant was
