[Note:  The clerk apparently skipped some words when transcribing this deed 
into the book, since part of the legal description of the metes and bounds is 
missing.  Based on other deed book entries pertaining to sales of this tract, 
this entry apparently should have stated:  "...adjoining Reuben Nail below and 
vacant on all other sides at the time of Survey, beginning at a red oak corner 
running thence North 65 West 76 chains...."]
