If such appeal be taken the warrant of arrest, if any, the transcript of the judgment, the appeal bond and other papers of the case, shall be forthwith delivered by the Mayor to the c1erk of said court, and the court shall proceed to try the case as upon indictment or presentment and render such judgment, including that of costs, as the law and title evidence may require, but no judgment shall be rendered against said Town for costs on such appeal. The Mayor may from time to time recommend to the Common Council such measures and ordinances as he may deem needful for the welfare of the Town. The expense of maintaining any person committed to the jail of the county by him, except it be to answer an indictment or be under provisions of the West Virginia Code, shall be paid by said Town. Said Mayor shall pay all moneys received by him for fines or by virtue of his office belonging to the said Town, to the Recorder of the same within one week after he receives the same.
