To His Excellency. Thos. E. Bramlette Governor of Kentucky.

Your Petitioner would respectfully represent, that at Term 1864, of the Pulaski Circuit Court, one Rufus Pearce was indicted for a felony, arrested, and William York, entered and became his surity on the bond --

That at the present term of said court the bond was forfeited, and judgment rendered against said York for $100, We ask Your Excellency to remit all of said judgment except officers fees, because -- Rufus Pearce is a soldier in the Fedral army, and by reason thereof did not attend, and by his non-attendance his surity, a clever but poor man, a good citizen of this county will be compelled to pay said forfeiture, unless Your Excellency remits the same -- Which we respectfully ask you to do --
