The order ought in strictness to be prefaced by a declaration that the act complained of is a contempt, but the absence of such a declaration is not a ground for discharging the order for irregularity (s). It is not irregular to engraft upon the order a direction that the party committed shall pay the costs of his contempt, but, if the order extends to charges and expenses as well as costs, it is to that extent irregular (s).
