To his Exellency Thomas E Bramlett
Govenor of the Commonwealth of Kentucky
Your petitioners citizens of Boyd Co most respectfully represent that their fellow citizen & townsman Robert Christy stands indicted in the Boyd Circuit Court for the offence of grand Larceny — which larceny is alleged to have been the taking of a Watch property of Jasper Bowling, Your Petitioners are satisfied that said Robt Christy did not feloniously & wilfully take the said Watch and said watch was not taken with the intention to steal or to convert it to his own use, but was taken for the purpose of creating mischeif and fun, Robert Christy is a worthy and honest man but is given to ^that^ all destroyer of mans Intellect, "Intemperance" We therefore ask & beseech your Excellency to pardon Robt Christy.
