against whom the claim is to appear before him or some other justice
on a certain day, not exceeding thirty days from the date thereof, to
answer such claim. It shall be made returnable to some place within
the magisterial district in which the defendant, or, if there be more than
one, either defendant resides, or in the district i in which the cause of
action arose, provided such cause of action arose within the county in

thereof arose. The warrant may be executed in any part of the county
or corporation. The warrant shall be served as provided for in sections
