To The Governor of
Your Petitioner,
He states that he gave some liquor to a sick man, but refused to take pay for it -- The sick man insisted on paying him for the liquor; but he refused to receive it -- the sick man then threw a piece of money on the floor and started out, and your Petitioner started about the same time to the cars that were just coming in, and cannot say what became of the piece of money -- he is certain however that he never received it. He gave this same sick man something to eat at the same time, but charged him nothing for what he eat or drank. For this he has been fined. He prays to be relieved from this fine. He has four orphan children to raise, and is quite poor, and unable to pay these fines.
John Lillis.
We recommend the Governor to pardon Lillis.
