Carlisle Ky Decr 1st 1865, To his Excellency, Thos E Bramlett, Governor of Kentucky Dear Sir

Your Petitioners would respectfully represent to Your Excellency that at the last September term of the Nicholas Circuit Court, Mr. H M Still was fined $50. for selling Liquor to a Minor (one drink) the selling was done by Mr. Still's Bar keeper without his knowledge, the Bar keeper being entirely ignorant of the law in reference to selling spiritous Liquors to minors. Mr. S is an excellent gentleman and Keeps an orderly house, and would be one of the last Men to Knowingly violate the laws of the Commonwealth,

We would therefore respectfully petition Your Excellency to remit so much of said fine as You are permitted to do by the Statutes of the State, hopeing You will grant our prayer we remain Your Very truly Your fellow Citizens
