To His Excellency
Hon Thos E. Bramlette
Governor Commwth of Ky.

Your petitioners would state that John B. Blaylock the applicant for your executive clemency herein, was indicted at the December term 1864 of the Henderson Circuit Court for keeping a tippling house — since that time he has quit selling or dealing ^in^ ardent spirits — At the present Decr term of the sd Court he confessed judgment and Sixty Dollars fine was assessed against him — Your petitioners would state that Mr Blaylock is a poor man and it the collection of the fine would be quite a hardship upon him, and think him a fit subject for the exercise of your executive clemency
