A member of a township committee shall be allowed, for the time he is engaged in the performance of duties under this chapter, one dollar per day and fifty cents for a half day, to be paid by the person or persons employing him.
When such person or persons shall fail to pay the members of the committee their legal fees within thirty days after the service done, they may severally recover double the amount of such fees, with costs of suit, by action at law. Each one of the committee may be a witness for or against his companion in any such action.
