Louisville
To his Excellency
Gov. Bramlette
Dear Sir,
I understand that some time since, You remitted part of a fine of $100, and deferred the balance for six months, against a Young man by the name of John Galvin From what I can hear I would be gratified if you would remit the balance. I believe it would be but a simple act of justice. Galvin was continually insulted, by a man when drunk, by the name of Harper On account of his Galvin's Unionism. At last he struck him,
which is most probable that you and I would also have done.
If you can consistently remit the balance upon investigation I would be pleased, if you would do so.
Very truly,
Richard T. Jacob
Louisville City Ct
