Hon Thomas E Bramlette
Governor &c &c
The undersigned William Edmonds, is a cripple for life, unable to earn a support by manual labour — was fined ten years ago in two cases for keeping a tippling house. I discontinued business from that date, and have since been trying to earn a support selling groceries in a small way, From Sympathy I suppose nothing was done with the executions until quite lately, when the matter was revived and if Compelled to pay, it will take all I am worth to pay I therefore petition your excellency to remit them
Respectfully
William Edmonds
