To His Excellency Thomas E Bramlette Governor of Kentucky Sir

Your petitioner Wolf Kohn about the 11th of May 1866 went bail in the sum of Two hundred and Fifity Dollars for the appearance of James Snyder in the city court of Louisville, to answer a charge of stealing a watch, worth under four dollars; said bond was forfeited by the nonappearance of Snyder and Judgment entered in said court against the security Wolf Kohn for the amount of bail with costs. Wolf Kohn not appearing through ignorance to show cause, why such jugment should not be had against him, and relying wholy on the lawyer who inveigled him to go on said bond, to clear him of all liability on the same.

Wolf Kohn did not receive one

2

cent for going on said bond but was induced to do so through kindness, and by the persuasion of others

Wherefore said Wolf Kohn would respectfully request Your Excellency to remitt said forfeiture

Wolf Kohn.
