Text

The commissioners or a majority of them shall partition the property in accordance with the judgment. They may cause the property to be surveyed into several tracts. They shall divide the property into as many shares as there are persons entitled thereto, each share to contain one or more tracts as the commissioners deem proper, having due regard in the division to the situation, quantity and advantages of each share so that the shares are equal in value as nearly as possible, in proportion to the interests of the parties. The commissioners shall then proceed by lot and set apart to each of the parties entitled one of the shares as determined by the judgment of the court.
