Grant County
To his excellency
T AE,, Bramlette
Govenor of Ky —
The undersigned a citizen of grant county would respectfully solicit at your hands the remission of a fine of Twenty Five Dollars ($25) — imposed against me at the October term of The Grant circuit court, for playing at a game of cards. The inditement was found upon a game which was merely for amusement being played for segars and drinks, which I think is ^not^ sufficient to be considered a violation of the Law — Your [...] clemency in this matter, to the extent of the Law, will be greatly appreciated, and will ever pray &c —
D E Craig
The following Petitioners join in the above prayer & hope you will remit the fine aforsaid —
J C Sayers —

D. E. Craig
$25 —
Remit
because of the good news this morning
