| Quote: | Britain Looking for Peyton
London: If you're looking for a virtually free education at one of Britain's top secondary schools you may be in luck. So, what's the catch? You have to be named Peyton.
One of Britain's top private secondary schools, Brighton College, is looking for a boy or girl between the ages of 13 and 18 with the last name of Peyton because a scholarship funded through an endowment by a former student dictates that the school award the money to a namesake.
Derek Wakehurst Peyton, a former Brighton College student who died in 2002, left the school hundreds of thousands of pounds (dollars, euros) with one stipulation _ that the money go to a student named Peyton.
The successful applicant must have a surname spelled Peyton, prove it with a birth certificate, and not have a hyphenated late name, said Brighton College Headmaster Richard Cairns Staff at the 1,200-student preparatory school in East Sussex, southeast England, have combed British telephone books and contacted all 600 Peytons in this country in an attempt to find a student interested in the scholarship, but to no avail.
Now, school officials are looking abroad in an attempt to find a Peyton, searching for Peytons online and even resorting to contacting a pro athlete, Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning, in the United States for any available leads.
“It seems mad having all of this money in the bank for a student and not having anyone to take the spot,” Cairns said.

| Oh wow!!! I'm a peyton!!! LOL I don't think it's silly because that man willed some money to the school and only someone by the name PEYTON can get the scholarship. If they can't find any Peyton to take up the scholarship, they can't use the money for the school. |
