Section 41. The court may award costs to either party, but the creditor or purchaser shall not be required to pay costs, unless it appears that he has unreasonably neglected to render, when requested, a just and true account of the amount due on the judgment, of the money expended in repairing and improving the land and of the rents and profits thereof; or unless it appears that a sufficient amount was tendered to him for the redemption of the land, and that he neglected for seven days thereafter to execute and deliver a release thereof as before required.
