New Port Ky
His Excellency Gov. Bramblette
Frankfort
Dear Sir:
Enclosed I send you a petition for the remission of a fine agt Gramer signed by all of the Jurors to whom the same was presented as I understand and also signed by the Mayor & Trustees of his town — He is a poor ignorant German and I think was misled by a license which he held from the Council of Jamestown — I believe if you remit the fine (& he will still have to pay all costs including the amt to the comlth atto.) that the public interests will be subserved & I am sure he will "sin no more"
Most Respy.
E. W. Hawkins
