Henderson Ky Sept. 1 1865. Govnr Thomas. E Bramlette.

Your Petitioners would respectfully represent that a Judgment was obtained at the June term of the Henderson Circuit Court in the name of the Commonwealth of Kentucky against D. N Walden late sheriff of Henderson County for Forty -- Dollars for failing to take sufficient security on a capiasprofine Bench warrant against Charles Henessey -- Mr. Walden took the individual Bond of Henessey -- and sufferd him to go to find his security and did not return -- we are satisfied that Mr Walden acted in good faith and in full lenient discharge of his duty -- but trusted too much to the defendant's honesty to return -- If you can find it consistent with your duty, it would confer a favour on us, the friends of Mr Walden, by remitting the fine
