My Dear Sir:
Mr. W. C. Moore, one of our most respectable business honorable men, and an active, earnest, & intelligent democrat, has been fined of late by the city authorites for su such violations of city ordinances as all or nearly all of our business habitually disregard with impunity; & believing that he is made an exception to a general rule on account of the feelings of a partisan police against him, he will not ask you to remit them His statements are entitled to emplicit belief, & you will, I hope, grant his request.
Sincerely, R. McKee
