(c)Promptitude in starting an alarm is a most urgent and important duty, when a prisoner is discovered to be missing, or a disturbance has broken out or is on the point of breaking out, no attempt at a search or at suppression, as the case may be, shall be made, till measures are first taken to give the alarm; the fact that the missing man was found or the disturbance put down without the necessity of doing so shall not be accepted as palliating, in any way, neglect of this order.
