The undersigned citizens of Powell Co. Ky would respectfully represent unto the Hon B Magoffin that Basil Hall a resident of Powell Co was last year sent to the penitentiary for forgery- That Hall has never been guilty or suspected of any such evil practices before & was his own worst enemy from the use of liquor which crazed & made him ignorant of what he was doing & such as they are informed & believe was his condition when he did the act named- Having always heretofore been honest & believing that he is not morally guilty we ask your honour to pardon him & believe in so doing you will not obstruct but promote right and & justice
