Elkton
Gov. Thos. E. Bramlette
Dear Sir-
Mr Mitchell, I am satisfied, did not intend to violate the Law — he is not that character man. He is a clever; honest good citizen — a very poor man having been unfortunate and lost a large proportion of his little property since the beginning of the Rebellion. Could you find it consistent with the public interest to remit the fines against him, he and his family will be to you profoundly Grateful
Very Resplty Yr. Obdt Sert.
J. H. Lowry
J. G. Hollingsworth
