Bowling Green, Ky.
Gov Thos. E. Bramlette
Frankfort. Ky
In the course of my business as a Confectioner &c, in this place, I sold a few packages of playing cards without getting out the license required by our State laws. At the recent term of our Circuit Court I plead guilty to the indictment found against me for the above offense, and was fined in accordance with the law, viz $50 25/100, with the costs. I committed the breach of the law innocently, not knowing that I was reuqired to procure a license, and I therefore respectfully request you to remit that portion of the fine, which you have the constitutional power to do.
Jacob Duvall
We the undersigned citizens of Bowling Green Ky, know Mr Duvall personally, and take pleasure in saying that we believe him to be an honest, law abiding man, and that he would not wilfully violate any law. We believe his foregoing statements are true, and respectfully
join in the prayer of his petition
