To his Excellency Thos E. Bramlette Govr of Kentucky.

At the April Term 1864, of the Woodford Circuit Court, a judgment was taken by the Commonwealth, on a bond executed by John Gwynn, for the appearance of Christopher Chilton, in said Court, to answer a charge of, FAffray," made against him. The bond was for one hundred dollars, and was conditioned for the appearance of said Chilton at the October term 1861 of said Court, particularly, but also conditioned generally as other bail bonds. It was shown to the Court, that there was no term of the Woodford Circuit Court, held in Octr -- 1861 -- and consequently said Chilton was not tried and his bond was, not discharged, as decided by the Court. Said Chilton has since failed to appear and said Court has entered judgment on said forfeited recognizance, Mr Gwynn is an old man, a quiet and good citizen and in quite moderate circumstances, We respectfully request your Excellency to remit said forfeiture so far as you have power over it. We are confident that said Gwynn was never privy to the offence of Chilton, -- nor to his nonapeparance to answer the charge against.
