The undersigned Rossina Louisa Krebb states that she is the mother of William Krebb who was convicted of larceny at the late Term of the Jefferson Circuit Court

The property charged to have been stolen amounted in value to about fifty dollars William Krebb is a young man only twenty seven years old and bore an unimpeachable character. He is a sadler by trade and lived in Louisville long before and at the time of the larceny with which he was charged, He supported by his industry the undersigned who is now very old and unable to support herself

The undersigned feels assured that confinement in the Penitentiary will not improve the but ruin forever the character of her son and will not accomplish any good. The undersigned prays your Excellency to pardon him
