defendant debtor by delivering a copy of such notice to the defendant debtor personally or by

fourteen days in some newspaper published in the county in which said property was so levied
upon or seized, or, if there is no newspaper published in such county, then like publication shall
be made in a newspaper in an adjoining county, and the clerk of the court of record shall mail a
copy of such notice to the defendant debtor directed to him or her at his or her last-known
address, postage prepaid. Such notice, with proof of service thereof and, in case of publication,
affidavit of publication and affidavit of mailing of notice shall be filed with the clerk of the court
