105. Where any distress shall be made for any sum of money to be levied by virtue of this Act, the distress itself shall not be deemed unlawful, nor the party making the same be deemed a trespasser, on account of any default or want of form in any proceedings relating thereto, nor shall the party distraining be deemed a trespasser ab initio on account of any irregularity which shall afterwards happen in making the distress; but the person aggrieved by such irregularity may recover full satisfaction for the special damage in an action on the case: Provided always, that no plaintiff shall recover in any action for irregularity, trespass, or wrongful proceedings, if tender of sufficient amends shall be made by or on behalf of the party who shall have committed or caused to be committed any such irregularity, trespass, or wrongful proceedings, before such action shall have been brought; and in case no such tender shall have been made, it shall and may be lawful for the defendant in any such action, by leave of the court where such action shall depend, at any time before issue joined, to pay into court such sum of money as he shall see fit, whereupon such proceedings or orders and judgment shall be had, made, and given in and by such court as in other actions where the defendant is allowed to pay money into court.
