When a surety recognizes before a Superior judge, for the appearance before the Superior Court of a person charged with being the father of a bastard child, the officer making the arrest upon the warrant shall deliver to such surety a bailpiece, if required, provided the recognizance is entered into before a Superior judge. If such recognizance is entered into before a judge of the Superior Court, the keeper of the jail in the county in which the principal is confined shall, if required, deliver to such surety a bailpiece.
