§ 306. Fence destroyed by accident. Whenever a division fence shall be injured or destroyed by floods, or other casualty, the person bound to make and repair such fence, or any part thereof, shall make or repair the same, or his just proportion thereof, within ten days after he shall be so required by any person interested therein. Such requisition shall be in writing, and signed by the party making it. If the person so notified shall refuse or neglect to make or repair his proportion of such fence, for the space of ten days after such request, the party injured may make or repair the same at the expense of the party so refusing or neglecting, to be recovered from him with costs.
