Henderson Ky
Feby 13^th 1863
To his Excellency
Gov Robinson --
Dear Sir --

Some time last Month -- the Office of Justice of the peace for the 5^th district in this county was vacated by the resignation of S S Sizemore -- A petition was sent to your excellincy to appoint P. H. Lockett -- Since then we have had no acting Justice, in this district, that is one who keeps an office for that purpose --

Our county Judge has been absent for a week & expect to be absent for two more weeks
so that we are really in want of such an Officer -- Subdivision 2 Setc 5 Chap 32 of statutes gives you the power to appoint if you have not already done so -- Your early attention to filling said vacancy would confer a favor upon the people of this district.

Yours most truly
H. F. Turner
