Where a negotiable warehouse receipt has been lost or destroyed, the warehouseman shall issue a new receipt upon the same terms, subject to the same conditions, and bearing on its face the number and the date of the receipt in lieu of which it is issued, and a plain and conspicuous statement that it is a duplicate receipt issued in lieu of a lost or destroyed receipt, upon compliance by the claimant with the following conditions: Before issuing a duplicate receipt, the warehouseman shall require the claimant therefor to make and file with the warehouseman (1) an affidavit stating that the applicant is lawfully entitled to the possession of the original receipt; that the applicant has not negotiated or assigned it; how the original receipt was lost or destroyed; and if lost, that diligent effort has been made to find the receipt without success, and (2) a bond in the amount double the value, at the time the bond is given, of the grain represented by the lost or destroyed receipt. Such bond shall be in the form approved by the secretary and shall be conditioned to indemnify the warehouseman or any holder or other person entitled to the grain against all loss, liability or expense which he may sustain by reason of the issuance of such duplicate receipt. Such bond shall have as surety thereon a corporate surety company which is authorized to do business under the laws of the state of Kansas and is subject to service of process in this state in a suit on the bond.
