To the Govener Thomas E Bramlette:

The Petitioner Fannie Cox would respectfully pray Your Excellency to hear her prayer: She States that at the September Term of the City Court of Louisville She was indicted and fined One hundred dollars & costs on a charge of Keeping a disorderly house. She states that She is unable to pay the fine and costs in the case;

She states that one of the Jury her next door neighbor was sworn as a witness, and He stated that your Petitioner was orderly and well behaved in her deportment: and that her house was quiet at all times;

Two Watchmen who did not belong in the Ward, Stated that the house of your petitioner was reputed to be a house of prostitution: and therefore the Jury returned a Verdict against your Petitioner for the aforesaid sum of $100. and costs;

She humbly prays your Excellency to remit to her the fine; She is scarcely able to pay the costs: and will ever pray &c
