And Whereas the Sheriff gave four weeks notice of the time and place of selling, by posting up written notices at three public places, one of which was at the Court House in Emmetsburg, and by causing two publications of notice to be made in the Palo Alto Reporter, a newspaper printed at Emmetsburg immediately preceding the day of sale
And by virtue of the written notice of the defendant that he elected to have said real estate sold subject to redemption
