by a proceeding analogous to that provided in § 4-56 and upon
proof of guilty knowledge, judgment may be given that such
house, building, tent, boathouse, car or other place, or any room
or part thereof, be closed up, but the court may upon the owner
or lessor giving bond in the penalty of not less than five hundred
dollars and with security to be approved by the court, condi-
tioned that the premises shall not be used for unlawful purposes,
or in violation of the provisions of this chapter for a period of
five years, turn the same over to its owner or lessor; or proceed-
ing may be had in equity as provided in § 4-82.
