This document was apparently signed one month after Thomas Payne Sr. obtained a warrant for the seizure and public sale of this tract of land. See the sheriff's deed from Hezekiah Terrell to Thomas Payne Sr., which was recorded this same day and entered into the Deed Book immediately before the entry of this document.] [Note 2: The first name of "Champ Payne" was usually spelled as Champness or Champneys. The clerk did not place an "s" at the end of "Champney" in the signature block.] [Note 3: The clerk used the folio method of page numbering: putting consecutive numbers on the left-hand pages and leaving the right-hand pages unnumbered.] Franklin County, Georgia, Deed Book NN, right-hand page of folio 89: Georgia ) I Champ Payne of the County & State aforesaid do Franklin County ) hereby relinquish & forever quit claim all right title claim or interest which I have to two hundred eighty seven & a half acres of land lying in the County aforesaid on Toogaloe River known & called by the name of Eastatoe old fields.
