§ 47. When purchasers pay the amounts of their bids; possession of

premises purchased. The purchasers at such sale shall pay to the county

treasurer the full amount of the bid therefor within one week from the

date of such sale, and thereupon the county treasurer shall execute to

each purchaser, including the county, a certificate in writing which

paid therefor, the interest or penalty thereon at which such property

was bid, the date of the sale and that the same was sold for unpaid

town, county and state taxes or assessments as the case may be, the name

of the owner of such property as it appears on the books, and such other

information as the county treasurer shall deem expedient. Such purchaser

or his heirs and assigns may, at any time after the time limited in

section forty-nine and section fifty-two of this act for the redemption

of such premises shall have expired, and the notice therein provided has

been given, and said premises shall not have been redeemed as therein

provided and title to such premises shall have been conveyed to him as

herein provided, and not before, obtain actual possession of the

premises by an action at law or by causing the occupant of such real

estate to be removed therefrom, and the possession thereof to be

delivered to him in the same manner, and in the same proceedings, and

before the same officers as in a case of a tenant holding over after the

expiration of his term without the permission of his landlord.
