Maysville, Ky,
Hon B. Magoffin, Governor &c
Sir, Harvey T. Wilson, Esqr, of Covington, some time since became surety for John Willett, of this place, upon a replevin bond for a fine recieved in the Mason Circuit Court, for selling liquor without a license, my recollection is, that the license had run out, and through neglect not renewed in time, Willett has left here, and Mr Wilson, who is a clever gentleman, a loyal citizen, and at present hard run will have the fine to pay unless remitted. He asks a remission, and I unite with him in doing so,
Very respectfully
R. H. Stanton
