Sep 7 1861
Dear Gov.

Enclosed I send you a petition asking the remission of a fine against J. G. Everett— I had expected to present it in person but find that I will not be able to come to Frankfortuntil about the 20th of the month— The replevin bond is about due and it is of great importance to Everett to keep any execution from issuing against him at this time.

If you can do so, it would be a great relief to him to respite it until Jan. 1st 1862; and when I come up I will state his case fully— As all executions are stayed until March next, I hope that you will be able to prevent any from issuing against him until the time named, and thus save cost &c—

Please have the respite, if one is granted, sent to me immediately—

Your message has been quite favorably received here by all classes, so far as my observation extends—

Truly Yours &c
Later Sec. Treasury, Speaker House, & Senator)

Hon B. Magoffin
Gov of Ky, Frankfort
