To his Excellency Gov. Bramlet

Sir We the undersigned Jurors who tried Garrett Whitson who is now under Sentance to be hanged on the 9th of Feby next would respectfully State that notwithstanding we felt compelled by the Law and Testimony to find him guilty of Murder, think him inconsideration of his bad health and Other circumstances surrounding his case a fit Subject for Executive Clemancy. We therefore ask you to Pardon him
