We the undersigned Citizen of Green County Concur in the Petition of James ^Blakeman^ to his Excellency Beriah Magoffin Governor of Kentucky, for the remission of the fine assessed against said Blakeman by the Green Circuit Court at its Feby Term 1861 for $30 & $10 making $60. We believe said fines to be hard and unjust and that said Blakeman on account of his inability to have the proper defence made and the absence of his witnesses that he was unjustly fined he is a poor man unable to pay siad fine We regard him as a good citizen & would be greatly pleased to have him releaved by your Excellency all of which we respectfully submit
