To His Excellency Thos E. Bramlette
Governor of Kentucky,
Your petitioners Citizens of Hart County Would respectfully represent that something near three years since, Isham Waddle was sent to the penitentiary from the Hart Circuit Court for on a charge of Horse stealing — for the term of four years —
They state that he is a mere youth, easily influenced and they have reason to believe that he was led into the offense by others and worse men who managed to escape justice — He is not rather weak minded and was led astray, was tried convicted and has served out the larger portion of the term for which he was sentenced — They are informed that his health is poor; and under all the circumstances, in view of his youth, the fact that the party who led him into the difficulty has gone unpunished (having escaped from custody & never been recaptured) his failing health & the punishment already endured by him, they think his case presents good and strong grounds for the interposition of Executive clemency — and they ask most respectfully that he be pardoned — They refer your Excellency to Jas A Dawson Register of the Land Office who is familiar with all the Circumstances of the case —
