Text

In pursuance of said order of sale, whether contained in said
decree or issued thereafter, the sheriff of said county shall
immediately advertise the property for sale, and shall sell the
same at public auction, without appraisement, to the highest
bidder for cash, and shall make a return of his proceedings
thereunder within sixty (60) days from the date thereof; and
said lands shall be sold in tracts or parcels with reference to
the rights of all parties therein, as the court in said order of
sale may direct; at which sale said lienholder may bid as any
other person, but, in the event of becoming the purchaser
thereof, he shall not be required to pay any money, except such
sum only as his bid may exceed the amount due him under said
decree; and, upon confirmation of said sale by the court, the
said sheriff shall execute a deed as nearly as may be in cases
of mortgage foreclosure, conveying to the purchaser of said
property, his heirs and assigns, all the right, title, estate,
claim and interest, both at law and in equity, of all parties to
said action in and to said land, subject only to subsequent
taxes; and, upon request of the purchaser thereof, a writ of
assistance shall issue to place said purchaser in possession of
said land; provided, that any person having an interest in said
land, may redeem the land in which he is interested at any time
before the confirmation of such sale by the court, by paying
into court a sum of money sufficient to discharge the lien
thereon, for the use of the lienholder, and upon such terms as
to the payment of the costs as the court may direct.
