The undersigned Citizens of Clark county are well acquainted with Daniel McGrath of the same County. who has been recently fined the sum of Fifty dollars by the city court of Lexington for carrying a concealed weapon. We have been well acquainted with said McGrath for many years and know him to be a good citizen and a loyal man he was a member of the Winchester home guard from its earliest organization until it was disbanded, And in times like these we think it is not only the right, but the duty of every loyal citizen to carry arms to defend himself against the attacks of Rebels, and rebel sympathizers Therefore we pray that the fine above named be remitted.
