Gov Bramlette
Dr Sir

Some weeks ago I sent your Excellency a petition asking to be releived from the payment of a part of three several judgments in favor of the Commonwealth of Kentucky against me as the surety for Sandford Hobby, rendered by the Caldwell Circuit Court against me. One of those judgments was for one hundred dollars and costs, and the other two were for fifty dollars each and costs.

I have heard nothing from your Excellency since sending the petition.

Please write me in
