V. The lots to be taken away, at the buyer's expense, immediately after

paid for, they will then be catalogued for immediate sale, and the
expense (the same as if re-sold) will be added to the amount at which

worm-holes, stained orshort leaves of text or plates, want of list of plates
or blank leaves, or on account of the publication of any subsequent
volume, supplement, appendix, or plates. All the manuscripts, auto-
graphs, all magazines and reviews, all books in lots, and all tracts in
lots or volumes, will be sold with all faults, imperfections, and errors
of description. The sale of any illustrated book, lot of prints or
drawings, is not to be set aside on account of any error in the enume-
ration of the numbers stated, or error of description.

VIII. NO IMPERFECT BOOK will be taken back, unless a note accompanies each book, stating its imperfections, with the number of lot and date of the sale at which the same was purchased.

IX. To prevent inaccuracy in the delivery, and inconvenience in the settlement of the purchases, no lot can on any account be removed during the time of sale.

X. Upon failure of complying with the above conditions, the money required and deposited in part of payment shall be forfeited; and if any loss is sustained in the re-selling of such lots as are not cleared or paid for, all charges on such re-sale shall be made good by the defaulters at this sale.
