Princeton Ky 26 1863

The undersigned citizens of Caldwell county state that they ^are^ well acquainted with Newman ^Estes^ Estes^& his associates^John Lewis & William Wells the bail for the appearance of James A Johnson and against whom Judgment was rendered at the present Term, and that under the circumstances (said Johnson having been carried away by the Military Authorities whereby it was placed beyond their power to have him in Court) it would be in their opinion a great hardship to coerce payment from them and respectfully solicit your Excellency to remit said Judgment
