Mount Sterling
Gov. Magoffin —
David Wymore of this County was fined in this County $100 ^Sixty Dollars^ for selling liquor — Some time ago, a Petition was forwarded to your Excellency to remit so much as was coming to the Commonwealth and it was reported here that you said you would interpose — Judge Moon so stated here — Nothing has been done by your Excellency to the present time and the exceution on the replevin bond is now pressing the sureties who will have to meet the debt — The Execution issued last year —
Mr Wymore only sold for a friend who had stepped out of the Bar and he sold a few tumblers of whisky — Your Excellency will rarely find my name asking for a remission of Fines, but this is a case which
I am satisfied challenges the interposition of your Excellency —
The Petition I understand, was as originally handed to you by Judge Moon
Your obt St
R Apperson
We concur in asking Gov. Magoffin to remit the fine of One Hundred Sixty Dollars against David Wymore —
He is a very poor, clever, honest man and he only sold for Mr Cain a little while in Cain's absence — Cain has been fined for keeping tippling house & Wymore only sold for him —
