To His Excellency, Hon Jas. F. Robinson —
The undersigned would respectfully represent that at the present (April) term of the Boyd Circuit Court, a judgement was rendered in behalf of the Commonwealth against J. L, Tureman, for $50,,00, for selling liquor to a minor — The liquor seems to have been sold during the war — as Home Guard — excitement in the neighborhood. Mr Tureman is not a habitual violator of the law, & this is his first case — & as he had been an efficient loyal man in these war times — we think your Excellency would be justified, on the whole, to remit his fine in this instance.
