To His Excellency Thos E Bramlette Govenor of Kentucky. We the undersigned citizens of Pendleton County Kentucky Most respectfully represent that at the April Term 1864 of the Pendleton Circuit Court Israel S McGill was fined sixty dollars under an Indictment for Keeping a Tipling house. We would further state that said McGill is a poor man not able to pay the fine without distressing himself & family greatly, believing that his case presents good ground for Your Executive Clemency. We therefore ask that you interpose and remit the fine or such parts as you may deem proper.
