The defendants answered interposing numerous defenses to the plaintiffs complaint as, for instance, that there was no tax sale held; that the purported tax deed and the certificate upon which it was based were both issued and dated the same day contrary to the requirement of Laws 1934, c. 27, 17, as amended by Laws 1937, c. 180, 1, providing that tax deeds shall issue two years from date of tax sale certificate; and, particularly, that the defendants, who were non-residents, had made diligent efforts within the period of redemption to secure from the county treassurer a statement of the amount of taxes against said land, delinquent and unpaid, and had tendered and offered to pay to him the amount thereof and had at all times stood ready, able and willing to pay said taxes renewing said tender in the answer filed, but were unable to get a statement from him of the amounts so due. Other defenses also were put forward. The trial court found generally all of the issues in favor of the defendants and rendered judgment as aforesaid.
