Amounts so recovered, if any, shall be placed in a sinking fund to be used to retire the principal and interest of such bonds, if bonds are issued in accordance herewith, and in the event a levy is made to restore such funds, then said sums so recovered shall be credited the same as moneys collected from said levies.
