Pulaski County Ky. Sept 27th 1865 To His Excellency Thomas E Bramblette Governor of Kentucky

Your petitions would respectfully state that at the present Term of Pulaski Circuit Court a Judgement was rendered against William Richardson the security of James D. Doolin on Bail Bond for three hundred dollars --

Mr Richardson is a poor man. has a large family dependant on him for support and is so deaf that he is scarcely able to attend to ordinary business. He is a good citizen and a worthy man. if he should be compellled to pay said Judgment it will leave him in quite an embarrassed condition The said Doolin ran off to Illinois several months ago. and left no property here so far as we know or believe

We therefore respectfully request your Excellency to remit all of said Judgement except the fees and costs.

W. H. Pettus County Judge. W McKee Fox B M Burdett W B Moore W H Owsley J. E. Cosson W D Carpenter. A J. James C W Richardson Wm Harvey
