Hartford Ky June 18th 1864
Hon T E Bramlett gov. of Ky

Your petitioners would respectfully represent, that Matthew Kirkendoll was indicted for an offence at the Sept term of the Ohio circuit court 1858 and at the March term ^1859^ of said court he was fined seventy five dollars Said Kirkendoll is a very poor man and unable to pay his fine — and has did enlist in the Federal Army in the 17th Ky ^Inft^ volunteers and remained in the army for something near two years when He was ^honorably^ discharged the 27th day of July 1863 on account of bad health incurred by said service

We hope if you can do so, you will release him of said fine as we think his a propper case for executive clemency

Respectfully
J. J. Harrison
