Springfield Ky
His Excellency
Gov. T. E Bramlette
Dear Sir, from conversation with the neighbors of the two young Farris now in the penitentiary upon the charge of horse stealing from this county. I am satisfied they present a good claim for executive clemency, I am informed they have been in confinement now about a year & they are young, and their neighbors generally express a desire for their release
your friend
J. P. Barbour
