The exceptions to the orders made in this action directing the commissioners to require the last and highest bidder at the sale or resales of the land described in the complaint, to secure his bid, before their acceptance of the same, were properly overruled. These orders were made by the court in the exercise of its discretion, which is not affected by C. S., 2591. Koonce v. Fort, 204 N. C., 426, 168 S. E., 672.
The order confirming the sale, and directing the commissioners to convey the land described in the complaint to the purchaser upon her compliance with her bid, is
Affirmed.
