Catlettsburg 20th 65
To His Excellency
Gov Bramlette

Our mutual friend Jno. M. Burns an attorney at the bar went the security of a man by the name of Daniel W. Dalton a year or more ago for three hundred Dollars for his appearance at the Boyd Circuit Court on a chg. of Gr. Larceny, on condition that he would go in the United States military service which he did, being as he now recollects the 56th Ohio- he has never heard from him & dont know whether he was killed or what became of him- he knows that he was in for some time after he joined, but not further - forfeiture of bond & judgment went of course- and I would be glad if you would favor Mr Burns under these circumstances & relieve him of the judgment, believing that his case is a really merritorious one

Yours ever &c
J.S Drury
Cmth Atty.
