description of the personal property to be sold and the time and
place of the sale. Public auction of such personal property shall
be made either at the courthouse door, at the site of the personal
property, at the residence of the decedent, or at some other public
place, but no sale shall be made of any personal property which is
not present at the time of the sale unless the court otherwise
orders. The executor or administrator, after making a sale of
personal property at public auction shall, except as provided in
Section 387 of this title, file a sworn return of his proceedings in
the court. The court shall fix the date for hearing such return and
notice of said hearing shall be published one time at least ten (10)

property sold, the sum for which it was sold, the name of the
purchaser and shall refer to the return for further particulars.
Upon hearing, the court shall examine the return and witnesses in
relation to the same and on proper showing the court shall approve
the sale. If such sale proceedings were unfair, or the sum bid
disproportionate to the value of said personal property, the court
shall vacate the sale and direct another to be had for which public
notice must be given and the sale in all respects conducted as if no
previous sale had taken place.
