The undersigned Citizens of Lewis County Ky understanding that an effort is being made to obtain a pardon for W^m Fuller who was convicted at the last term of the Lewis Circuit Court for the Malicious & wilful injury & destruction of the property of George Rea and fined fifty dollars beg leave earnestly to remonstrate against the same. It was a very aggravated case. It was submitted to the Judge without a Jury and fully and fairly tried and he was convicted and a motion for a new trial after an elaborate agrument was overruled The testimony conduced to show that Fuller was one of an organized band who has been whohas engaged in many acts of lawlessness and violence in this County and this is the first opportunity of bringing one to Justice. His conviction has had a salutary influence in favor of law & order in the County and the undersignned do hope that the Govenor will not counteract that influence by pardoning him.
