Glasgow, Ky.
To His Excellency
The Govr. of Ky.
Dear Sir,
Enclosed you will find the petition of Messrs Huggins & Berry — The former of whom was fined $60x at the last Oct. term of the Equity & Criminal Court for Monroe County. Latter called $20x upon seperate indictments for tipling house. Believing from the facts stated in the petition, the most of which I know to be true, that said fines ought to be remitted. I cordially unite in the prayer of petitioners & hope your Excellency will grant them the relief asked. Both of them are worthy men & good citizens —
Very Respectfully
N. A. Smith
Govr. Magoffin
