Greenupsburg, Ky,
May 22, 1862.
My dear Governor,

Our mutual friend, Geo E. Roe, Esq, became the surety of [...]Thomas Cassidy, on a recognizance bond, for his appearance at the present ^last^ term of the Greenup Circuit Court; and Cassidy having made default, being absent from the state, judgment was rendered against Mr Roe for $100 at the present term. It will be a hardship upon Mr Roe to pay the amount of the judgment, and as Cassidy may yet appear and answer the judgmentcharge against him, I ask respectfully that the judgment against Mr Roe may be remitted,

Very respectfully,
R H Stanton

Hon. B. Magoffin
Governor &c.
