Hon Thos E Bramlette
Sir
I Know nothing personally of the facts connected with the shooting of Mr Wood by friend butGorin — but, from all that I have heard and from my personal Knowledge of Mr Gorin, I think I may venture to say that the shooting could not have been done maliciously.
Personally I should like to see Mr Gorin pardoned and I think the public generally would be pleased also
Very Respectfuly
Your obt sert
Bland Ballard
