Henderson Ky May 25th 1863
Gov Robinson.

I was elected one of the justices of Henderson county in 1860 ^also in 1861^. Not wishing to hold the office I declined being a candidate at the last election. The person elected in my place declines accepting the office, — now as I do not wish to hold the office, I now tender to you my resignation, to take effect immediately after the next August election, at which time you can order an election to be held for choosing my successor,

Yours Respectfully
Henry H, Farmer.
