Governor Thomas E Bramlette
Dear sir:
Enclosed you will find a petition of S M Clark who was indebted for keeping a Tippling house at our last term of the Pendleton Circuit The name by which he was indebted was Alesk Clark, but he took no advantage of the error in the Indictment, He desires to have all of the judgment except the costs remitted, I am not much in favor of the remission of fines, but I think this to be one of true merit, The petion is signed by the very best citizens of our County who are his immediate neighbors, The witness who attempted & did to certain extents prove the charge was triffling fellows by person enemies, I think his case has true merits
Respectfully yours
John E. Records
