To His Excellency Thos E Bramlette Govenor of Kentucky-

The undersigned Citizens of Trimble County would respectfully represent to Your Excellency- That at the Oct term 1863 of the Trimble Circuit Court one Mathew McAllister was by a jury of said County, found guilty of an assault & Battery on one, Horton- and his fines asscessed at Two Hundred & fifty dollars- There were no circumstances of peculiar aggravation connected with the case and the verdict is really oppressive- Said McAllister is in very moderate circumstances- and it will be exceedingly oppressive for him to have to pay off said fine-

We think this case presents one for the interposition if executive clemency & he would respectfully ask that said fine so far as can be done May be remitted-
