356. All processes of court not being writs, or warrants directed to the Fiscal or other person for execution, and all notices and orders required by this Ordinance to be given to or served upon any person, shall, unless the court otherwise directs, be issued for service to the Fiscal of the court issuing such processes, notices, or orders under a precept of that court as is herein before provided for the case of the summons to the defendant in an action. And the enactments of the sections of this Ordinance from section 59 to section 70, both inclusive, relative to the service of such summons shall apply, so tar as is practicable, to the service of such processes, notices, and orders.
