    . Addressing another statutory precursor to § 2464, the district court reached a similar conclusion in Haakonsen v. Lotosland Corp. (The Lotosland), 2 F.Supp. 42, 43 (E.D.N.Y. 1933) (citing The North America, 19 F. Cas. 309). The court observed that it "would work inestimable hardship on the owner of any vessel" if the statute were interpreted to permit the release of an attached vessel only if it were secured by a bond double the amount claimed by the libelant.
