GA. It notes that the land was purchased from and is occupied by a James PEPPER. It is signed A. L. C. MAGRUDER, sheriff of Bibb Co. This was scanned from an original issue (NOT microfilm!) of the Macon Telegraph and Messenger newspaper dated June 24, 1876, and you can see it online here: http://theoldentimes.com/peppersmith76bibbga.html I hope it's helpful!
