Harrodsburg Ky Nov 25"/64 My dear Gov --

There is a petition which will be handed you by Geo Corn for the release of his brother Solomon Corn convicted at our last court for Larceny,

I have not known Corn personally but from what I can learn I believe your clemency would be properly used in granting him a pardon --

His Father has I am informed committed suicide on account of his sons disgrace, the family are in great distress about him and I think the lesson already given him is sufficient punishment for his offense & that he will be made a good citizen by being pardoned -- He is very poor, and I most heartily join in asking his pardon

Truly Your Friend Nat Gaither
