Governor of the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
The undersigned citizens of the First district of Mason County do respectfully state that by the death of Esquire William Greathouse which occurred some two weeks since a vacancy was caused in the office of Magistrate in said precinct. It is very necessary that an appointment should be immediately made, then being at present only two magistrates in the 2 Maysville precincts one in each, and one of them absent at least half of the time from the County, and we would represent that John L Grant acted as magistrate for some years previous to the Election of William Greathouse deceased and recommend him as a suitable person for the office. We also suggest that the appointment be made by
