provision requiring the giving of notice of sale thereunder for a specified
number of days by advertisement in one or more newspapers and such advertisement
is published in a newspaper published daily or in a newspaper published daily
except Sunday, it shall be deemed a sufficient compliance with such provision if
such notice is published in consecutive issues of such newspaper for the number
of days specified, counting both the day of the first publication and the day of
the last publication and intervening Sundays, whether or not such newspaper is
published on Sunday. Both the first publication and the last publication may be
on Sunday. The publication shall in all other respects comply with the
provisions of &#xA7;&#xA7; 55.1-322 and 55.1-323.

specified number of weeks, sale may be had on the day after the last
advertisement appears or any day thereafter, and all sales made in conformity
with this section prior to January 1, 1972, and otherwise valid are hereby
