To the Gov
Dear sir
I enclose copy of record in a case when a Dutch Client of Mine was fined unjustly, if an unjust fine was ever inflicted I procurred copy of Record intending to appeal the Cause but the Bill of Exceptions is not fair and is Stronger against me than the testimony and I think it best to apply to you to remit the fine I feel confident that the testimony as written in this record is of a character that barely justifies the fine if strong enough for this purpose I never present a petition when I would not myself remit In this case the defendant did not know he was violating law and discontinued the game when told it was improper to permit it You will do an act of justice in remitting it and oblige
Yours truly
T. C. Campbell
