Commonwealth of Kentucky, EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, Frankfort, Sep 278th, 1865. Dear Governor,

Enclosed please find papers in regard to Lt. Col. Patton of the late Confederate service. I fell in with his mother & Sisters when I was on my forced exile. It is on their account I appeal to you for his pardon. I am certain from the papers enclosed that he was a regular Confederate Officer and therefore believed that he was pressing and not stealing horses. If You can, I will consider it a great favor if you will pardon him

Yours truly Richard T. Jacob
