Terms and Conditions.

   the regulations in force thereunder, and these conditions.

3. The aforementioned quality, quantity, and kind as to
   the said timber shall be taken as sufficiently accurate for
   the purposes of this sale, and no contract for the purchase
   shall be voidable, nor shall the successful purchaser be en-
   titled to any abatement in price, by reason of the said timber

   as the Conservator may require, and for this purpose the
   accounts and books shall be open to the inspection of the
   Conservator, a Forest Ranger, or other duly authorized officer.

5. The attention of all tenderers is drawn to the fact that the
   local controlling body may require the successful tenderer
   to pay any claims or charges which may be made by that
   body for the maintenance of the road over which the timber
   may be transported, and before a sawmill license is issued a
   letter indicating that satisfactory arrangements have been
   made in this connection must be produced to the undersigned.

   Forests to withdraw from sale any or all of the said timber
   either before or after the closing date for receipt of tenders.

   it will remain open for application for three months from the
   date tenders close.
