[There is a difference between the two final amounts on the document.
Any explanation off this difference was not legible to me.
The roughly $10 difference may represent some commission or fee for holding
the sale. It could also represent some filing fee, or some other unexplained
discrepancy. The amount reported to the court was $1,904.64 1/2.]
