In 1920 appellants, who are the children and heirs at law of W. L. Conrey, brought suit to partition certain lands- owned by- their father, a part of the lands being owned by him in severalty, and others as a tenant in common with T. J. Sharum. The complaint described the lands owned by their father in severalty, and alleged that each of the plaintiffs was the owner of an undivided third interest; and the complaint also described the lands owned by Sharum and their father as tenants in common. The first mentioned lands contained 120 acres, and the last mentioned contained 360 acres,, and all of it was in the same section.
There was an error in the description of this land, as it appeared in the complaint, and, as a result of this error, forty acres of the land owned by Sharum and the plaintiffs’ ancestor was omitted from the complaint. There was never any controversy about the respective interests of the parties or the description of the land which they owned.
Sharum filed no answer, but personally appeared in court, where he and other witnesses testified at the hearing then had, and the court found that the lands could not be partitioned in kind, so a sale was ordered, and a commissioner was appointed to make the sale. The decree ordering the sale correctly described the lands, but did not adjudge the respective interests of the parties. This decree was rendered May 31, 1921.
*416A sale was made by the commissioner on July 16, 1921, pursuant to the directions of the decree of sale, and at this sale the- land was first offered in forty-acre tracts, and Sharum was the highest bidder for each tract, his bids totaling* $2,250. After thus offering the land for sale, the commissioner offered all of it as a single tract, and Sharum was again the highest'bidder, his bid being $2,250.
The commissioner reported the sale to the court as having been made on a credit of three months, but he did not take the note of the purchaser as the decree directed. "When the commissioner presented the certificate of purchase to Sharum, he declined to execute a note, stating that he owned a. half interest in most of the land', and had paid the taxes on all of it, and that the title to a part of the land might not be good, but he did pay the commissioner $900 in cash.
The report of the commissioner came on for confirmation, and was approved by the court on the 3rd day of the April term, 1922. The commissioner was directed to execute a deed, and this he did, and the same was acknowledged in open coxirt.
It appears that the various orders of the court above referred to were either.never prepared by the attorneys for the clerk to enter or were not entered of record by the clerk if prepared, and thus the matter stood until the April, 1923, term of the court, when the executors of Sharum, who had died in the meantime, filed petitions for the entry, nunc pro tuno, of the court orders above referred to.
There appears to be little controversy about the facts stated above; but there is considerable conflict as to the value of the lands.
The heirs of Conrey, who were the plaintiffs in the original suit, filed .answers to the various petitions for mum pro tw%c "orders, and also filed exceptions to the confirmation of the commissioner’s report, and offered testimony tending to show that the lands had sold for a grossly inadequate price. This testimony related, *417however, to certain specific tracts of land, and not to the whole of it.
It is now insisted that the court did not acquire jurisdiction of the forty-acre tract omitted from the complaint, and that the sale to Sharum was void because he abandoned his purchase by failing to execute the note and by not offering to comply with his bid until the filing of the petitions for .the mmc pro turne orders.
The court made the nunc pro tunc orders as prayed, and this appeal is from that decree.
We think the court had jurisdiction to order the sale of the land omitted from the complaint. The court found that the parties appeared and testified in open court. The .appellants were the plaintiffs there. They prayed for the partition or sale of the lands. There was no dispute or uncertainty a/bout the description of the lands or the respective interests of the parties, and the decree of sale for partition correctly described the lands. Evidently the court treated the complaint as amended to conform to the admitted facts as shown by the testimony then heard.
The court found that the respective interests of the parties were adjudged as required by § 8100, C. & M. Digest, and that the report of the sale had been duly approved and confirmed, and that the commissioner had been directed to execute a deed, and that the deed had been approved, and it was ordered that decrees be entered mmc pro tunc showing these facts.
Pending the hearing of these petitions, the attorneys for the executor waived in open court any claim for the taxes paid by Sharum on the interest of his co-tenant, and the balance due on the purchase price was tendered into court, whereupon the court directed that the deed, which had been previously executed and approved but not delivered, should be then delivered, and this was done.
We find nothing in this proceeding which calls for the reversal of the decree of the court below. In making these mmc pro tucnc orders the court merely directed *418that a proper record be made of what had been previously adjudged. Sharum should, of course, have been required to execute the note as ordered by the original decree of sale; but there is nothing in the testimony to show that he abandoned his purchase. His payment of $900 to the commissioner refutes that contention. He should, of course, have allowed the court to adjudge what part of his bid should be finally paid after allowing him credit for the taxes; but these were questions which should have been raised when the report of the commissioner came on for confirmation. Evidently no credit for these tax payments was allowed Sharum when the report of sale was confirmed, but he waived this omission by agreeing in open court that no account should be taken of them. Upon payment of the balance due on Sharum’s bid, which was tendered and paid into court, he became entitled to the delivery of the deed which the court had previously approved.
Upon the question of inadequacy of price, it suffices to say that the testimony does not show such gross inadequacy of price as to raise a presumption of fraud or unfairness, even though this question had been raised when the report of sale came on for confirmation, as it should have been.

No error appears, so the decree directing the entry of nunc pro tunc orders is affirmed.
