Where real estate is erroneously sold for taxes and the state became the purchaser thereof, it shall be the duty of the tax collector of the county in which the real estate is situated to prepare and issue a certificate setting forth the following facts:
(1) A correct description of the real estate sold and purchased by the state,
(2) That the sale was erroneous and the reason therefor, and
(3) The present owner of the property, if known.
This certificate shall be forthwith forwarded to the Land Commissioner of the state; and, if it is determined by him that the facts therein set out are true and correct, he shall approve the same and forward the same to the judge of probate of the county in which the property is situated, who shall note on the margin of the record of such sale the fact that the Land Commissioner has approved the cancellation of the same, and he shall mark the sale void and sign his name as judge of probate to his certificate voiding the same.
