The owner or keeper may enforce his lien by replevin of the colt or colts, and after obtaining possession of the same may proceed to sell it, after first giving ten days' notice of his intention to do so to the owner thereof, and after two weeks' notice of the time and place of the sale, by notices posted in five conspicuous and public places in the township where the keeper and owner resides. Out of the proceeds, he may retain the amount due him for the service and the costs of the replevin suit, if any be had, accounting to the original owner for the surplus.1 185 Laws, 262.
